Is anyone else blessed with a lesion on the cord at the C2? If so can you tell me if you are having as much fun with it as I am.

Not sure how long ago this question was asked? In may when diagnosed with MS they told me I have lesions at C2, C3,C5,C6,C7,T6, & T12. As well as white matter suspicious for active demylenating plaques on 2 different areas of my brain...I also tested positive for the. JCV virus, however my neurologist says the level is acceptable to him. (I don't actively have it). They'll just
keep monitoring it. I guess I thought this many lesions were pretty normal for MS???

Yeah I know what you mean Rox. I have a lot of "abnormalities" as the Doc. put it in my brain as well. I found that kind of funny because I didn't realize I still had brain left.

My lesions on spine are lower. Also have brain lesions. Out of the two I prefer the spine. I don't feel pain. Just numb and weakness. But with my brain, is harder to understand and voice my thoughts. In talking with someone, I won't remember a word but can see it in my head and describe it in detail.
