I would try to get a second opinion. The periventricular white matter is a common placee for MS lesions to appear. Additionally, I still would ask for a referral to a vascular physician as well as another neurologist. The statement "neoplasm is felt to be less likely but cannot be excluded" would send me straight in to another neurologist. Please consult with another neurologist for a second opinion as well as get a second opinion on your MRI. They do have neuroradiologists that can review your MRI.
Let us know how you are doing.
