A member asked:
Can a head and cervical mri definitively rule out ms? don't meet up with neuro until a couple of days but he said no evidence of ms on mri.

Almost always: Normal brain and spinal cord mris make ms very unlikely.

Not MS: Do not know your symptoms fully, but in presence of negative imaging studies, you do NOT have MS.
