A bit of constructive criticism, I almost died bc of a misdiagnosis not once but four times. Marfan Syndrome is what I actually have. Misdiagnosed with anxiety disorder and bipolar. Until I started passing out, lost 60 pounds in 3 months, what looked like seizures, and went into an every other bigeminy rhythm. Got a cardiac MRI which showed a Pectus Excavatum chest deformity, and given another misdiagnosis, Hypermobile Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome. Wasn't corrected until I almost died again from a uterine rupture during pregnancy, which led to yet another misdiagnosis of Vascular Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome. Finally started getting better on heart medicines and procedures. I was sent for genetic confirmation which showed an FBN1 Marfan Syndrome mutation, and an unrelated diagnosis of Type 2 Albinism. Still didn't explain everything though. Then, I lost 100% arm and hand function in my left arm and hand, and in a wheelchair, both probably 20+ times over 8 years. Used to go away after a week or two, until I progressed so long without treatment because everything at this point got blamed on Marfan Syndrome because "it's so rare" excuse of nobody knows enough about it. Now, it's permanent loss of function I have and I only got back about 50% of it with dialysis. Now, I'm in heart failure with severe POTS. Severe Osteoarthritis from a lifetime of joint dislocations. My ADHD and my Autism symptoms all are exacerbated by the 16 lesions in my brain and brain stem. Now, on disability with my coding career ruined. And now instead of RRMS I progressed into SPMS due to the negligence. So, the whole "if it looks like a duck, it quacks like a duck, it must be a duck," saying, well that easily can turn into a *deadly* misnomer so please doctors, proceed with caution there. Don't diagnose psych conditions either without testing people up and down physically first. Occam's Razor is used too much. And rare diseases aren't as rare as once thought. Healthcare refuses to diagnose them out of the fear for misdiagnosis so thus, rare. It is sayings like this duck thing and the hoof beats/zebra thing that lead the general public to not trust you. Thanks.

I have an MS diagnosis but the medication made me feel awful so I stopped recently after two years. I was sick for ten years before my MS diagnosis. I have EDS, Chiari malformation, POTs. Pretty sure I have Lyme or something. But doctors don’t believe in that. Hearing loss, rashes... yes! But they don’t ask. I live in Ottawa by the way. Glad to see these presentations take place here because we need the help.

I haven’t had a full spine MRI since 2010. My diagnoses was based on a brain MRI and a spinal tap. My visual evoked potentials test was normal but I was still diagnosed and put on immune modifying medication. I regret taking it now.

I wake up in pain and go to bed in pain. It has been hard for me this last 4 years which my life is so miserable. The first neurologist 4 years ago told me than an MRI was too expensive and that I had fibromyalgia. I just saw another neurologist and he said the MRI is too expensive too and that I should do physical therapy first, if PT do not work then will try to order an MRI. I am just so in Pain everywhere every day that I am tired of keep living with this pain!!!

Same problem here. Had long-term infection in upper molar. Became infected, infection spread into Eustachian Tube, appears to have traveled into Middle Ear. - Since 2019, been having Balance and Dizziness Disturbance. It's chronic. Got Worse since 2021, tho the Emergency Room Doctors I go to , established my Patient Case Files as a MS Diagnosis. As consequence: Every Time I go to the doctors now, they almost immediately [Pull Me Into a MS Patient Assessment Profile], Though I Keep Telling Them: I haven't had Any Symptoms in any form since the 2016 MS Diagnosis; the product of what I believe to have been a Severe Analphlatic Shock, due to the Ingestion of a Very Moldy Blood Orange, that I ingested by Accident, thus..., when I used Statin Binders to clear the mycotoxins, what was left for a [Fungi Detect] when I went in, and they did a CBC.., 'Of Course they weren't going to see what I believe caused their MS Diagnosis.. ..Dumbasses.. Sigh. :\

I was diagnosed through a brain biopsy. I went through a living hell for about a month. I couldn’t walk, couldn’t talk, couldn’t swallow. I didn’t know who I was or where I was at! I thought everyone was just trying to kill me. I was finally scheduled for a brain biopsy and was diagnosed with MS. The doctors said there were too many lesions to count.
