Ginny,

Thanks so much for the extensive information!!
My neuro hasn't ordered these tests. I just read the term on this list a
number of times and wondered what it was. Is it used mainly for further
testing for MS after the MRIs and such? I have wanted to do further testing
since I had new symptoms crop up after the original TM, but my dr. says it
wouldn't change how we're treating it, so there's really no reason to. I
guess that's true, but I would like to do another MRI to see if there has
been further damage. I'd be interested in the evoked potentials since I do
have some eye problems that he acknowledged was probably due to nerve
problems, but supposedly, there's nothing that can be done about it anyway. I
imagine if I really insisted, he'd do it.
