I'm now extremely curious to see a spinal MRI. I had only my brain MRI'ed and that was enough for my diagnosis. My neuro had mumbled about doing another MRI before he diagnosed me (of the spine etc) but he never mentioned it again.

If I'm not mistaken L'Hermittes is a symptom that's directly related to spinal lesions? Correct me if I'm wrong. But I've had L'Hermittes a couple times, so if that's the case, I definitely have lesions there too.

I wonder what the forecast for brain stem lesions is? Some of my 'bigger' symptoms (the trigeminal neuralgia, burning mouth) point to damage in the brain stem.

(Sorry tangent!)
