Hi, have my neuro appt tomorow, I'm a little anxious as expected.  I know that not everyone who has a CIS goes onto develop MS.  I have lesions on brain and spine so have a much higher chance than someone without MRI evidence (around 80% i gather).   I just wonderd if there is anyone on here is still diagnosed as CIS and not MS with multiple lesions ?  Had my CIS in Feb, new MRI shows no new lesions and I'm around 95% recovered. I'm in no rush to be diagnosed with MS and would prefer to be in limbo land.. Thanks x

I have CIS with brain lesions but am still recovering from the symptoms. Don't like the idea of living with a black cloud above my head of a possible relapse and MS diagnosis though :( How have you found it?

Was diagnosed with MS today, the neuro said he couldn't be sure  though but the latest MRI seems suggestive. He also said the new lesions I have on brain and spine may be from the CIS period and might not more recent but I now could have an LP if I wanted.  I guess its the 3rd MRI scan that will show if its multiphasic or not. xx

Hi Anon
I am sorry to hear your diagnosis, especially as you were happy being in limbo. I hope you are ok.
Could I ask what CIS is please? Sorry to be dense
PG xx
