Same here; inflammation and my fluid pressure was high (but I'm not sure what
that means).

The only thing they found from my spinal tap was evidence of inflammation (?)BERNARD BUTCHER

Subject: [TMIC] Not Devic's (MS)- then what???Last week I had the spinal tap and today I found out that the results were negative. Negative for MS I'm guessing. I have to wait until next week Tuesday in order to have a visit and sit down with my Dr. What does this all mean? That I most likely have Devic's and definately not MS? I need some answers so that I do not get overly weighed downed...
I went to Cancun with my sister a two weeks ago. I left children and husband behind...I really needed to mope and think. My sister has Lupus and she was quite helpful on what to do when you are exhausted, tired or just not in the right frame of mind. While I was there, I believe I was very much affected by the hot weather. I was sick for two days, back, neck pain and I even spiked a fever overnight and woke up with a fever blister on my lip. I had no appetite and I was a just wanting to sleep. I took some of my sister's 600mg ibuprofen for comfort. I typically, love and enjoy the warm weather. I love the feel of the sun on me and I just was a little disturbed that i did not feel well and was so drained on my vacation.
Does the warm weather affect persons with Devic's in this mannter??

I just received a call from my dr. that my antibody test from the Mayo Clinic was negative for Devic's disease. He previously ruled out MS based on my MRI scans, what then is plaguing me? It is possible to have Devic and have a negative testing for the particular antibody?
