it could mean many things. the best thing is to NOT freak yourself out about it.

why were you having these tests anyway? rule out MS? or an exacerabtion of MS?

It may be that you have a lesion on your MRI and lesions can be caused by many things other than MS, but MS is certainly one of them.

Medicine is the process of ruling things out. There are more than 100 diseases that can mimic MS including the lesions, and frequently it takes time, and patience to rule them out. They start with the easy things like Vit B12 or Vit D def on blood work. Lyme, Lupus and other things that can show on blood work. Then once at the bottom of the pile, they are normally left with a small handful of possibilities. After a couple of MRIs or exacerbations proven in clinical records, they work their way down to MS. its usually one of the last things considered after they rule out the many other things.

Please, dont panic. MS is almost never an emergency, even if it feels like our world is coming apart because of it.
