Re: doctor suspected MS but mri was normal
ok, so just a little anatomy question ... I'm not trying to ask for a weird diagnosis or anything. But it looks like most of these are fairly symmetrical, and I noticed on this one a small circle near the top right that isn't on the left. What is that? Sinuses? I'm just curious. :) http://i62.photob...

Re: I don't understand my MRI
there aren't very many neurologists in my area...I have a friend who was diagnosed years ago with MS and she's seen several of them & said they're all the same. And then last month they changed their mind and told her maybe she doesn't have MS. How would I go about finding an MS specialist?? I'm...

Re: I don't understand my MRI
I was told by my neurologist that the spinal mri wasn't necessary because the brain one was clear. It was kind of weird ... the worst of the tingling/numbness was in my left arm and another test showed pretty good carpal tunnel so it was kind of like "oh, you have carpal tunnel and your brain i...

Re: I don't understand my MRI
I'm really not sure who evaluated it ... I know a radiologist at the hospital did, and then made up a report. After that I'm not sure if my neurologist looked at the scans himself, or if he just read the report...no idea. They only did the brain; when I asked about the spine I was told if the brain ...

I don't understand my MRI
So a couple months ago I was sent in for an MRI to "rule out MS". They called and said my scan looked normal. So fast forward to today, where I'm doing a lot of my own research and a friend suggested that I could look at the MRI myself. I didn't really have doubts of my doctor, but I thoug...

Re: doctor suspected MS but mri was normal
So it's been awhile, but a friend told me that I could get a copy of my MRI to look at myself ... which I thought would be kinda cool. So I got the disc and popped it in, but I do have a question about it. I thought when they're looking for MS lesions that they show up as "white spots". My...

Re: doctor suspected MS but mri was normal
Lyndacarol - I live in Oregon, and I can log in online to the hospital and get actual numbers from the tests ... except the MRI, there weren't any numbers involved that I could see.
