Hi there, I'm sorry to hear you are going through this, but glad to hear that you are seeing an MS neurologist. I wouldn't be too concerned about what info your bring to th dr. Everything will be important to tell him/her. You can separate the symptoms on your list that you know to be MS, and have a secondary list that may or may not be. MS can present itself in so many different ways and there may be symptoms you are MS related (that is if it is MS) you didn't even realize. Having a list is important.. and it can't hurt to get all of your info together.   There are two pages on the MS Society's site that may be of interest to you. The first is about preparing for a  dr.'s visit and the other is for people who have possible MS. There is good information there that may be of interest to you. If you stay in the "newly diagnosed" area you are less likely to see info/pics that can cause anxiety. I know when I was diagnosed in 1988, I didn't want to see all the possible MS experiences. (Of course, as I'm sure you remembe, there was no internet back then!)   I hope your appointment goes well tomorrow. Please keep me (us) posted. I hope you feel better.   Best, Amy
