Hello, the other day I was reading a ME blog and found out that there are different tests that can be done to get your diagnosis. I was sure there was only MRI, but there is also lumbar puncture and evoked potential testing...

My question is, what exam or exams did you get? I think for me it was simple, but the more I read the more I find out for some it can be quite a ride

I had mri, egg (not the sort with a yolk) and the lumber puncture which I would never recommend to anyone especially if they have students present to do the procedure!!! But this was all for MS not ME.
