MRI SCAN OF THE BRAIN

Axial TIW, T2W and FLAIR images T2W sagittal, and T2W coronal was performed. MRA was
performed
The cerebellum and the cerebral hemispheres show normal signal intensity in all pulse sequences.
No abnormal areas of altered signal intensity noted. Normal MR morphology is demostrated
No midline shift or mass effect. No evidence of cerebral oedema.
There are no abnormal signal intensity areas to suggest a mass lesion, Infarcts, Haemorrhages or
a vascular malformation.
The ventricular system, the basal cisterns, the subarachnoid spaces and the cerebellarfovea and
the cortical suld are normal for the age of the patient and show normal CSF characteristics in all

pulse sequences.
Corpus callosum,, Pituitary gland, optic nerves and optic chiasm appear normal .
Both acoustic nerves appear normal. Both auditory nerves and the CP angles are normal.
There are no developmental anomalies of sulcation or migration.
There is no Cranio vertebral anomaly or tonsillar herniation.
Both Maxillary antra are normal.
MRA

Intracranial arteries and dural sinuses show normal flow and are in normal caliber. No narrowed

segments or segments of signal drop noted
There are no aneurysm, vascular malformation or thrombosis of dural venous
COMMENT: Early cerebellar degeneration is a possibility No focal lesions seen

My condition for the past 7 months is that my left side - Exactly half the side has some numbness. The numbness is more towards the feet. I do not feel Heat or Cold. When I keep something hot or cold, I feel only pain. Then there is a heat sensation from within on the left side which is causing quite a discomfort.
Other than that, I am quite normal. I am attending to my normal household chores and I am quite strong with nary a weakness anywhere in the system or body.
I am also hypertensive. I take the following drugs on a daily basis.
1. Herbesser - Diltiazem Hydrochloride capsules 230 Mg.
2. Tenolol - Atenolon - 50 Mg.
3. Noklot - 75 Mg.
4. Atorva - 5 Mg.
5. Neurosanbe (Vitamin B12, 1 & 3).
No other treatment is given.
How can my hot and cold sensation be restored and get rid of the numbness on the left side?
Anybody who can Help
