The lab offers a novel gMS® testing for the diagnosis and prognosis of Multiple Sclerosis (MS) patients. Our gMS® tests use the first validated MS biomarkers to help physicians identify and provide appropriate and timely treatment for MS patients. Glycominds works with physicians to arrange for patient testing via a secure and convenient program in conjunction with phlebotomist services which arrange for patients to have their blood samples collected at a convenient time and place.

Your demyelinating disease could be due to multiple sclerosis (most common), optic neuritis, devic’s disease and encephalomyelitis. However, persistent headache is more common with encephalomyelitis, which is inflammation of the brain and spinal cord due to post infection/injury. Other symptoms could be delirium, seizures and coma. But in multiple sclerosis symptoms could be loss of muscle coordination & strength, normal sensation and vision.

6% had relapsing remitting multiple sclerosis, 9.4% primary progressive multiple sclerosis and 6% clinically isolated syndrome. Nearly 40% of our multiple sclerosis patients with disease duration >10 years (mean = 16.2 ± 5.3 years) remained with no or mild disability (Expanded Disability Status Scale [EDSS] 3). Also, about 30% of patients with relapsing remitting multiple sclerosis showed benign disease evolution (EDSS 3) more than 20 years (mean = 24.0 ± 3.3) after onset.

I am in the process of being evaluated for multiple sclerosis due to many white spots on my MRI and eye troubles. I have a few things I have noticed for many years but didn't think much about until now: I frequently shudder with a feeling of a chill for a few seconds at a time. Occasionally, I space out for a moment and then come back sometimes in the middle of conversation. I sometimes experience a very sharp stabbing pain in my abdomen that lasts for about 30 seconds.

Multiple sclerosis is a chronic demyelinating neurological disorder where the disease phase is characterized by active phase and remissions. It has multiple symptoms and signs and is a diagnosis of exclusion.

These results are reassuring in conjunction with the normal MR scans of your brain and spinal cord these findings mean that we have no positive evidence to suggest a diagnosis of multiple sclerosis. This is not an unusual situation, since we see many people with symptoms quite similar to those of MS, but with negative findings on all the appropriate investigations.
