Get second opinion: There is no such entity called "autonomic respiratory involvement in MS", and MS does not directly affect lungs or pulmonary status unless you have acquired pneumonia associated with a profound deterioration. Sounds like you need a practical updated approach. We can help guide you with a Concierge appointment.
