Thank you, bricabrac! I'll browse through them and add them to our list of questions for the doctor. We're putting together "when can this be cleared to do" options for the next appointment and definitely intend to get a good therapy routine on the planner as soon as he's up to it.
Oddly, likelihood of MS is a relief. The past few months have had things like brain tumor, blood clot and stroke, and aneurysm as options (they ruled out most of the simple and curable possibilities early on), so MS is strangely good news when the other possibilities are taken into consideration. We have done a lot of reading and see that treatments - medicinal and therapeutic - have come so far and continue to progress. He has relatives with MS that were much further along before they were diagnosed so that has been a point of nerves, but the doctors were positive to point out that he has few symptoms right now (that is what caused some delays in coming to a diagnosis) so the earlier he gets a good therapy plan together, the better he'll be long-term.
