Hi everyone.
As I believe I stated in a previous blog, I had an MRI (actually three of them) on the 29th of July.
Well, my neurologist called me yesterday while I was at the park. She called me directly to go over my results. I have 3 lesions in my spine- further indicating Multiple Sclerosis. She also stated she believes that the numbness I have been experiencing in my finger tips since May is caused from the lesions in my Spine. Joy, right?
She also told me that I have some disc degeneration, which I knew from an x-ray a few months ago. Nothing new there, as far as I know it hasn't progressed- but I will as her on the 5th.
Now for the fun stuff......
She informed me that she found an abnormality in my spine, and asked if I have ever fallen on my back. Which I have. She said she would go over it when I see her. But, what could of been caused by a fall aside from fractures? Anyone have an idea?
Lastly, she informed me that the abnormality she had spotted in my previous MRI (the pituitary glad abnormality) has not changed, but she is certain of what it is now. She said that I have a Ranthke Cyst. From what I have researched it is basically a non-cancerous tumor. She said she would give me more details on it during the appointment, but informed me that I will be receiving an MRI every three months to monitor it.
Fuckity fuck fuck.
