It's been a year and I just got the results of the brain MRI that my neuro had done last week...I have issues with my nerves jerking, thrashing, and flailing whenever they darned well decide to...yeah, they decided to during the MRI...I actually felt like I had a whiplash for 3 days following the MRI...Here is the radiologist's report:
FINDINGS: This study is limited due to a considerable amount of patient's motion
which she was unable to control. There are no acute abnormal areas of
increased or decreased signal intensities, diffusion restriction or enhancement.
The ventricles have normal size and shape and there is no midline shift. There
are no extra-axial collections of fluid. The major vessel signal flow voids are
identified. There are several stable areas of T2 hyperintensities scattered
throughout the periventricular deep white matter of the frontal parietal lobes
bilaterally with no abnormal enhancement. No new lesions identified. These
areas are nonspecific but raises the possibility of multiple sclerosis and clinical
correlation and follow-up is recommended. There is Mucosal thickening of the
maxillary sinuses bilaterally consistent with chronic sinusitis
IMPRESSION:
1. No acute abnormalities
2. Stable focal areas of hyperintensities in the periventricular the white matter of
the frontoparietal lungs bilaterally which are nonspecific but raises the possibility
of possible MS. Clinical correlation and follow-up is recommended.
3. Bilateral maxillary sinusitis
So, I guess I will continue to settle for the Fibro Dx and just do another follow up MRI in a year. I want to thank each of you for being here for me through all of this and being so encouraging.
