Man, this man had to be the most old school doctor that I've ever gone to. I won't even get into how ancient I thought his office looked but yeah, we had a consultation and an exam. I THOUGHT I was supposed to be having the VER (Visually Evoked Response) test done but we didn't do that. We did something, lol, but that wasn't it. He talked to me about a few things. He mentioned how the Number 7 nerve runs across above the eyes and below the lips and that the optical nerve gets its signal from both sides. He also talked about the Multiple Sclerosis and how I'd have to have lesions on my brain to have it. So, he sent me for more blood work and another MRI so that he could go over it with the radiologist. He also wants me to get the results from my last MRI.
From all of that, he basically said he thinks it could be Optical Neuritis. So that's where we are things right now. Next week, more appointments.
