Well according to this study it says about 78% of all people have at least one T1 hyperintense lesion. But 71% of those with SPMS had multiple T1 hyperintense lesions and only 46% of RRMS have multiple T1 hyperintense lesions.

The Mayo clinic said I had a "significant amount of T1 hyperintensities" on the notes for the second visit. What the hell does significant mean? But on the notes for the first visit the doctor wrote the two MRIs done at home show
"T2 hyperintense lesions with decreased T1 hypotensity and actually several black holes. There were more than nine lesions in periventricular, subcortical as well as around the corpus callosum that were in the right orientation location to suggest demyelinating disease. Several of these were enhancing in the initial MRI." Basically I'm confused.

I think this line in another abstract scared me: "Hyperintense MS plaques on T1-weighted MR images are common and associated with brain atrophy, disability, and advancing disease; a hyperintense lesion may be a clinically relevant biomarker."

Anyhow, Erin is probably right. I'm just torturing myself by doing all this reading. It just escalates the anxiety.
I don't see the neuro for another month.
