Absolutely, I have also heard of this and seen it. I don't, however, know of the treatment for this type of MS.
My very first Neuro/neuro surgeon, in the 1970s, did perform a brainstem operation on a family friend, so this is not a new type of MS. I never followed thru on how it all turned out, but I know that she did improve.....and then I lost contact.
Do I remember you mentioning having a Glioma? Could it be in the brainstem? Is an operation an option? I don't know?
