Q: can a mri come back negative for ms but still have ms. i had a cbc that showed elavated enzymes of the muscles. is ms still on the table?

No and no: A negative MRI rules out MS&gt; If muscle enzymes are significantly and not just marginally elevated you need to determine the cause. This is a muscle and not a neurologic issue.
