Hi! I agree w/what Judy (Nurse Nancy) said and she's very wise in stating that you should see an ENT w/your records. My DD's neuro said that her sinus's were completely blocked after viewing her MRI, so sent her to an ENT. Come to pass, she didn't have a blockage, just severe allergies. So, the interpretation of the MRI can be read differently. I'm glad for you that they don't seem to think it's MS, but I would still try and figure out what's going on. Good luck and keep us posted.

It's good news no MS but it's bad that you didn't get any definite answers. I hope you get some soon.

Hey well, it could be worse it could have been ms AND the sinus cyst. I agree you should find a good ENT guy. My DD is seeing one and he is GREAT! I wish he was a neuro. If you are from VA I will be happy to give you his info. The man is a god send who has seen us through some very scary times with the little one.

That is good news about your MRI.
![]() You have gotten such great advice and I can't add much. As for the cyst, I have one in my sinus and it always shows up on the MRI. Going to an ENT is a good suggestion. I have had the cyst for years and years. I use a cortisone type nose spray and do my Neti pot daily. That seems to keep it under control. The Mayo Clinic website has some great information on cysts in your sinuses. Wishing you the best of luck. |

Thank you all for your suggestions, I appreciate them more than you know! What should I keep track of in a log? Every symptom, every twitch, buzz, tingle, accident, etc? Do I note the times of day, the weather, what I ate, etc? I'm sorry if these seem like silly questions, I just want to be sure that I do things the right way and provide all of the pertinent information.
Truly, I appreciate your advice, suggestions and concerns! It's heartwarming to know that a group of people care what I am going through! Thank you so much, and I will probably stick around! |

However, I know that many people do this and actually it is a good idea. When I go to the neuro's, they always ask about symptoms - when did they start, how long did they last, what helped them and what aggravated them, etc.. They also ask what medications I am on and the dosage. So this may be a good place for you to start. Hopefully, others will chime in on what they have done to keep a symptom journal. |
