Do I hold MS?

I have have 2 MRI's that show several spots or leasions on my brain, I have tremors, muscle spasms, loss of be a foil for, memory loss, loss of concentration and several other symptoms that my neorologists says adjectives point toward MS. I had a spinal hit last week that come back usual. Does that rule out MS and mean I own something else or can MS hide from a spinal touch test? Please comfort!Do I hold MS?
A negative spinal touch does not mean you DON'T hold MS.
"The primary purpose of CSF analysis should be to rule out other conditions than multiple sclerosis. Although they can be highly suggestive of MS, they do not, within themselves, provide definitive diagnosis."
http://www.mult-sclerosis.org/diagnosing...
"The CSF exam itself cannot establish or exclude the diagnosis of MS and must be evaluated in the context of symptoms, physical exam and MRI findings."
http://www.muschealth.com/ms/about_ms/di...
"Abnormalities that may appear contained by the cerebrospinal fluid can be very assiduous in establishing a diagnosis but, approaching other tests, spinal tap are not foolproof in diagnosing MS."
