Hi 5 months back i had optic nuritis, MRI brain was normal but LP done suggested MS, started prdisolone for 3 months then i stopped, neuro doctors want to repeat MRI befor continue the steroides. my Q is i was having neutropenia 0.6 that time, increased after IV methylpredisolone, then after stopping predisolone again i have neuropenia continously, with H/O vomitting for 3 weeks, mouth ulcer, and other symptoms, it is realy MS or another autoimmune disease?
`actually diagnosis of MS needs confirmation of clinical attack and MRI brain lesion in different ages. So you have to go for MRI brain and also for ANA and e-ANA test to rule associated other autoimmune disease.
