Hi Jess, Your story really shocked me and so sorry so called professionals were incompetent. Did they not do any reflex tests at all? They should have tested your babinski reflex by stroking the bottom of your foot with an object. That should have given an indicator that something was abnormal unless you have quite ticklish feet?😂 Keep sharing your story and stay positive.😊
Hey, no they didn’t do anything like that until I was diagnosed. They did a CT, said there’s nothing there, and then went to explanations that were why I would make it up. I understand MS is difficult to diagnose and not always the first thought for someone at 17 but it was difficult at the time to keep being told I was lying. What’s funny is I have a pretty noticeable response to the babinski test so they would have seen something was wrong 😂 and my other reflexes are hyperactive. I’m just happy to have my diagnosis now and to be able to share my story with others who went through similar things 😊 Thank you!!
Hey Jess, Yeah the way you were treated was disgraceful. Asking if you were being abused😳. You should have put in a complaint as lessons need to be learned. What do you mean you have a pretty noticeable response to the babinski reflex? Are your feet quite ticklish when they do it or in general?😂 You seem like a really cool and caring girl. Stay upbeat👍🏻
@@JimBob-kl5te hey, maybe we should have, but I’m just happy to have my diagnosis and be treated by brilliant doctors now! 😊 you can just see the positive reaction quite clearly with the big toe extension. Thank you so much, I try to be positive and spread that to people who need it, going through a tough time with their MS or their diagnosis 😊
Hi Jess, Glad you are getting correct treatment now. Well there you go. If they did that before they would know. You’re feet ticklish at all? Does it make you jump? 😂 You’re doing a great thing. Keep it up👍🏻
@@JimBob-kl5te hey, thank you!! And no, I actually have very little sensation in my feet so I don’t feel it 😂 but my toe goes up which is a positive response. Thank you so much 😊
