Hi Kathy

None of us here are experts, but welcome and I am sure you will be able to get some great support here.

I can only assume from your post that you have had symptoms that have led to an MRI, but as yet don't have a firm diagnosis.

Others are right in saying that you need to talk to your doctor about the findings - there are lots of reasons why people have lesions on their brain, MS is only one.

Looking forward to getting to know you better

Regards

Lyn

Smirk Dx ms

I was dx on Monday with MS. Friday the doctor still wants me to have a spinal tap. I have lots of brain lesions, he says he want to be real agressive now. It took some years to dx and now he says he needs to start meds soon. Wow 64 and I feel I have had this for some time. I only have certain systems as bad spascitiy and being real tired at times. Bad memory loss and some times balance. Muscle acks at times, hope it is not to late to treat me since I am in my 60. I would like some commants about the age factor. Kathy
