UPDATE ..... Laura's problems continue, we're no further forward at all, she's had various visits to casualty when the attacks have got bad, without any progress, she's now had a MRI scan, a Lumbar Puncture, various electrical tests, eye examinations, skin tests, the list goes on and on.
She finally got to see the specialist last Wednesday, her and her mum were in with him for an hour, but at the end of it all, he admitted that he'd no idea what the problem is, but thankfully he didn't think it was MS as the Lumbar Puncture and the MRI scan were completely clear, he had been leaning towards some sort of a Virus, however all the blood tests show no sign of virus fighting, so basically whatever it is, her body doesn't seem to think there's anything wrong, so it's not fighting it off.
So he's going to consult other specialists to see if they can come up with anything, in the meantime he's advised her to get on with life as best she can, not easy when she's in quite a lot of pain most of the time, plus she's so tired that she falls asleep everytime she sits down. Not much fun when you're 18
So it's back to waiting
