I think you will find that TM and MS are NOT the same disease,
although there certainly are similarities. I also think that once you have
more than one "episode" --especially when plaques are visible that the
diagnosis is MS -- period. I'm not trying to admonish you but I'd love to
know what neurologist is spreading that "news".
