Hope it goes well: I suggest bringing or requesting transfer of copies of MRI or lab tests that you have done (ask the medical records in hospital regarding policy- your pcp might have already done that). The neurologist will ask questions regarding possible symptoms you might have experienced in the last few years. It would be helpful to have a list of all the medications you are currently on and any drug allergies.

Remember this: In 2014, most patients with MS can be successfully treated and controlled, and can not only live a productive life, but also not have the disease shorten lifespan. Our modern potent agents have enhanced our success.
