My first LP I had no o-bands, my second LP I had o-bands. Best to let your neuro do the analysis of that MRI and LP. Good luck to you.

Well...I saw the Specialist Neuro Doc Today...He put me through ALL kinds of testing..!! he Looked at my MRI of Brain and spine - he read my Report..he listened to my symptoms....He Talked with me as we looked at the MRI white spots....and He said "There is No reason to believe you have MS" he went on to explain and show me why. Nothing pointed to MS (per doc).!!
As the report said I do have deep chronic white matter ischemic disease. I am going with that and running...!!!  it is hard to type everything he told me...my retention has always been poor. I do have Hashimoto's - High Cholesterol - in menopause and ADHD...

... Thank you everyone. I think i left out some of information. I just wanted to add that I do not have "optic neuritis" ... I have No Optic problems at all. I was wondering if you all that had No "O-Bands" in your CSF if you have had issues with Optic Neuritis..?
Also even if you had No O-Bands was everything in the CSF tap in perfect ranges..? I have 5 lesions on brain. None on spine etc. Thanks everyone.

No optic neuritis here, the word perfect wasn`t used in my spinal tap results, just within normal ranges. I do however have lesions on my brain, cervical, and thoracic spine that were termed in the MRI report as consistent with a clinical history of MS.
