My late husband was a “case study” at the Cleveland clinic in the early 80’s. He had one of the first MRIs done in the country there. He had MS AND neurofibromatosis as well. I forget the neurologists name that saw him, but he went through a round of cyclophosphamide for about a week there. It didn’t help. He never had a remission and died in 1993 at the age of 37. He had cognitive impairment, was blind, had a urinary catheter, feeding tube, colostomy and was on oxygen in a hospital bed in our living room. I cared for him all those years. It will be 30 years this May that he died.

The money I would pay for someone like him to read my MRI !!! At 10:49 he mentions something that has given me hope about my presumptive diagnosis of MRI. My MRI shows bilateral "lesions" around the zones of terminal myelination and based on his comments, this is a naturally hypertensive area and should not be confused with MS lesions. Oh lord, I hope I am right!!! Seeing a Neurologist this coming Friday, fingers crossed!!

[@truthteller8872]

How are you doing today? Hope you're doing better. Any updates?

[@wandasanders4193]

Sorry it took so long to diagnose. I was lucky and diagnosed quickly in the Navy 26 years ago

[@truthteller8872]

Thea Hess- My goodness I am so sorry. It's unimaginable and heartbreaking so many go year's without a proper diagnosis. I'd like to know some time how your diagnosis finally was figured out? I'd seen your comment is from 6 year's ago hope you're doing better these days, hope to hear of your follow up. Much hugs and light to you.

I realize that the actual intention for this video is to perhaps help physicians better understand how M.S. presents on a MRI...but I have to say that I am SO grateful I came across it. I am a 45 year old woman who was diagnosed with M.S. at 43 and, until now after watching this video, I have not fully understood what I was seeing on my scans. So thank you so much Dr. Stephen Jones for this amazingly informative video! Side note: I have been on Tysabri for a little over 2 years now and test JC positive, so the information on how PML might present itself is also very appreciated, as this is a pretty big fear of mine. Thanks again! D.D.

10:33 He mentions certain areas of the brain that will Flair Hyperintensity and for it not to be confused with MS lesions. Wow.... This language is all so interesting but so foreign to understand but I try. I admire this man, he's really brilliant and most importantly is compassionate, wish he could read my MRI. I thank him for all that he does.
