I only have a diagnosis of possible ms.
My brain scan showed no brain lesions.
However, I have been doing research on my
own and on the internet I found an article
from the university of rochester n.Y.
Case # 108 and in reading I learned that
75% of ms cases involve spinal cord
lesions and that the spinal cord may be
the earliest affected site in onset of ms.
In addition, most acute symptoms are from
the cord lesions rather than brain
lesions. Cord lesions do not always
accompany brain lesions; plaques in the
devic variant of ms are confined to the
optic nerve and spinal cord. This
information can be found at www.Urmc.Rochester.Edu/smd
/rad/neurocases/neurocase108.Htm and
is dated 5/17/06. So it is pretty new
information. I have scheduled an
appointment with an eye Dr. And I am
going to share this informaion with my
neuro, and see what he thinks. :!:
