hello. i have rrms dx in 2001. upon being scanned for a problem with my swallowing, 2 cysts showed up on my thyroid. at the bottom of the mri was a note saying:
cardiomegaly and borderline pulmonary vasculature. when i asked the dr about the results, he dismissed the note and told me its nothing, not to worry. this was 3 yrs ago. i have many symptoms that were pushed aside... should i disregard this notation in the scanned results or should i have looked into this further? i should say even before the test was taken, i had been to the e.r. a few times for palpitations and for a resting pulse of 140 or over. waiting for my dr to return to send me for follow-up with scan on neck... somehow, i think the research for ccsvi makes alot of sense and answers alot of the questions i have had over the past few years... anyone else with ms had any scan results noting cardiomegaly (enlarged heart) or pulmonary vasculature? i would appreciate feedback if anyone has. Thanks so much,
MamaGirl
