Quick bio: numbness, tingling zingers all over starting happening all of a sudden in Oct. Have ruled out lupus, lyme, B12, TIAs, iron deficiency, nerve conduction issues. Had a brain MRI & lesions showed up. Here is the MRI results:
FINDINGS: There are multifocal punctate areas of abnormal white matter signal hyperintensity scattered in both cerebral hemispheres. These are predominantly located in subcortical regions but also affect periventricular white matter especially along the expected course of the optic radiations on the left. The lesions number greater than 9. No enhancing lesions are seen. No lesions are seen in the posterior fossa. No T1 hypointense lesions are seen. No mass or mass effect. Flow-voids are seen in the major intracranial arteries and dural venous sinuses. Orbits are free of abnormality. Flow-voids are seen in the major intracranial arteries. Had spinal VEP, MRI & LP...all fine. Went to MS specialist to get 2nd opinion, he says he doesn't think its MS because of where lesions are located. Can't tell me why I have lesions or symptoms (which, haven't gone away, in fact I have added a couple more). My neuro here originally said possible MS but now is being very reserved. I have another MRI scheduled in May. I know...they can't predict anything, but from what I've read, CIS should be treated. Anyone that can give me their 2 cents, I appreciate it! Thanks for listening. |
