What specific findings were mentioned in your initial MRI report?

MRI results can vary widely from person to person with MS. Many MyMSTeam members have shared that their initial MRIs showed different patterns - some had multiple lesions clearly visible, while others had very few or even unclear results that required additional testing.

Some common experiences members have shared include:

* MRIs showing lesions in the brain's white matter or spinal cord
* Results that were initially unclear and required follow-up scans
* Findings that needed to be combined with other tests like spinal taps for diagnosis
* MRIs that showed lesions in multiple locations, helping confirm MS diagnosis

One member noted, "My spinal tap was negative. But the MRI showed way too many lesions." Another shared, "I had a lumbar puncture that was negative. My neurologist still says I have MS. I do have severe symptoms."

If you'd like to share what your MRI report said, I can help you understand what those findings might mean and how they relate to other members' experiences.

Jessica, allow the neurologist to interpret for you!

I mean, it seems to indicate *a new lesion, or one lesion that has grown in size (May) be on here.

But they should provide something to you in a shorter form!

I feel for you and I’ve been in similar situations in the past with the cryptic medical overview.
