Hello twanielee,

Having "non-specific" brain lesions is very generic for saying they don't know the cause at the moment. There are different causes for Brain lesions.

I have had MS a very long time and my brain MRI still states "non-specific" in reference to my few Brain lesions. My cervical spine MRI states "consistent for MS."

Anyone have MS diagnosed based solely on symptoms and non specific lesions?
This is a response I had given on another thread:

I was given a definite diagnosis of MS with a clear MRI.

However, I had what I refer to as the "perfect storm." I was in the middle of a severe exacerbation (relapse, attack, flare-up), positive Lumbar Puncture (LP) and a Neurological exam that I completely failed.

im 33 had issues since 25 seen an ENT everything came back normal was told to go to a neuro my symptom match but tested neg for everything on lp my dr always does brain mri without contrast i dont know why my previous thoracic spine did not show abnormal marrow but new mri suggest abnormal marrow or so to speak Hemopoietic marrow have no clue what it means lol
