Default Hello Maybe New Here?

Hello
I am a 27 year old female whom the MD thinks I may have MS. I had my MRI today and I of course can not wait until Monday to talk to him. I have a picture and I was wondering if anyone could give any input. I completely understand it is not medical advice but people who understand this disease the most knows what they are looking at in a MRI. My crazy anxiety would thank you!

A little back round a month ago my left hand started feeling numb/pins and needles 2 days later it went to my trunk then my foot. It now is manly my leg and foot. My fingers are a little tingly.

I have more pictures if anyone could help my figure it out I received a cd at the hospital but it only works with DICOM. Any help I appreciate it. Thanks a bunch, as you can see I am going crazy.

I'm of no help concerning the MRI images, but wanted to welcome you to the community. Even though we're all like snowflakes--no two exactly alike--we are still all in the same boat. I remember very well those days of chasing a diagnosis, and I was a basket case waiting for answers.

This is a good place to be--even if nobody can "read" your MRI, we'll give you support and keep you company until Monday! And beyond, if you want!

Hi TJ. Welcome to the community.

Please let us know what you hear on Monday about your MRI. It's hard to wait.....most of us have been right where you are right now.

I can't interpret MRIs either but I see you're in MA. So am I. I'm in Hudson, what town are you in?

I'm sure the waiting is driving you nuts but I don't think anyone here is qualified to read your MRI.

Thank you for the kind words. I went to the nuero Tuesday thinking at most maybe a slipped disc, the to hear the doc say well ms could cause this, but don't worry( ya ok) I have been freaking since! I have a 5 and 6 year old and celiac disease as well. I would really like to keep my resume to just that!

I am from norton ma!

Thank you for the kind words, it's been a crazy week. I went to the neuro thinking maybe I had a slipped disc or something. The doc said it wouldn't cause the whole side to be week, so I asked well what could- bad idea. He then said so calmly ms- but don't worry we won't know until an MRI. Ya ok easier said than done with someone who has bad anxiety. So of course I have been googling non stop! I was diagnosed with celiac last December so this would just top of the year for me!

I am from Norton MA. Looking forward to talking to you all. I will let you know as soon as I do, hopefully sooner rather than later!
