There : There is no link that is known with meningitis and multiple sclerosis. Studies such as an MRI would show if you have lesions consistent with ms, but meningitis would be unlikely to have caused such a condition. I am glad you are getting another opinion so that you can have a complete evaluation.

No: There is no link between meningitis and multiple sclerosis. It is not clear why you think you have multiple sclerosis.

Consider these : Unlikely that your pain is due to ms, and you might instead have fibromyalgia, small fiber neuropathy, even complex regional pain syndrome. Seek out a pain specialist and get this pinned down. Good luck.
