Default MS SYmptoms and no diagnosis

I am new to this site, am I am glad to be here. It shows that I am not alone. I have been suffering terribly from multiple symptoms for over 4 years now. I am a 46 year old woman that was extremely active, a police officer for 11 years and a mother of 2. In 2008, I became seriously ill and weak. It developed into a severe and chronic case of pneumonia. I ended up leaving law enforcement and goinig from hospital to hospital. Eventually, one doctor did a test and it came back positive for EBV. Since 2008, I have been getting worse. I have seen 3 neurologists and one has been testing my symptoms for the past 2 years. In an MRI in '09 it showed a 3mm punctate focus of T2 hyperintensity seen on the FLAIR, axial and sagittal images located in the posterior parasagittal right frontal lobe. There is also a poorly marginatedarea of T2 hyperintensity seen in the central aspect of the upper pons extending to the base of the left cerebral peduncle which measures 17 x 11 mm. I have no idea what this means and I am not sure how to search it. I asked my neurologist and he seemed to "go around the question" and gave me the impression that he doesn't want me to research. I am desperate for a diagnosis. I have been tested for MS, Myasthenia Gravis, Epilepsy, Narcolepsy and so much more. I am frustrated and don't know where to go from here. If you know what this stands for I look forward to hearing from you. Thanks.
