White matter lesions in cases of cervical instability - Ross Hauser, MD

[@rebeccaparry9242]

It would be a blessing to see this amazing Doctor I've dealt with so many physicians due to my symptoms being so horrible & not getting the answers i need suffering is not the way people like us deserve to live.

[@sallywhittaker956]

I’m so glad I found this 😁 I’ve just had my 2nd brain scan & been told that I have white matter in the brain , it’s my memory.now I’m having the 2 1/2 our test next week ; they are testing me to decide which type of dementia I have

[@Hope-y5k]

Thank you finally someone has talked about this and I don’t feel crazy anymore for not feeling good

[@CaringmedicalProlotherapy]

We are glad that you were able to find some answers with our video - we are praying for your healing and wish you the best on your regenerative medicine journey!

[@MrsPaulaTorres]

I’ll record a KZbin video of my experience on Caring Medical sometime too. Because without it, I don’t think I’d be alive anymore. According to dr Ross Hauser I had for their clinic 97th percentile brain pressure and I remember waiting on the appointment laying down as I couldn’t even keep my head up, I knew I will die at 31 or 32 if I don’t find the proper help and answers. My POTS was so severe I was bed bound for a year and a half. My Miami dr said “you have just thyroid” sounding as stupid as a boot. I felt like I have brain cancer. So diagnosis “pseudotumor cerebri” made all the sense. It’s a very dark place to be with CCI and in diagnostics we discovered I have elongated styloids on top of it. The world desperately needs to have this knowledge in mainstream medical field. Every Dr on Earth should be fluent in Dr Hausers work. Every single one of them. I am so thankful to be off the meds and with recovered conflictive health, face shape and overall Sanity & Life. ❤ ❤ ❤

[@edotheemost]

Long story short, I've been sick for years, no clear diagnosis. My neurologist mentioned "white spots" on an X-ray, but he was very passive about it. It felt like he was telling me I had bad acne, just matter-of-fact. This is the most comprehensive run down I've seen.

[@CaringmedicalProlotherapy]

We are so sorry to hear this was your experience but are happy you found our channel! We pray that you can find a proper and clear diagnosis soon!

was it due to your jugular veins being squished like Dr. Hauser explained in this video and were you able to recover?

[@theresasmith1]

Finally a full explanation . I've been having TIAs, migraines, cognitive, and balance problems. I had complained to my Dr 7 years ago I couldn't think straight and had MRI. He said all ok. After ambulanced 3 times past 1.5 years plus seen 3 Nero specialists . I was in total shock last jan ambulanced and specialist quoted your white matter micro vascular brain disease is just advancing. I quoted "What the heck are you talking about I've never been told about this! His explanation ill provide you with the proof of your mri years ago and last 2 and today. He told for me to be close to family and friends. So it had advanced drastically. My carotid arteries 70 % and 50% blockage. I'm so upset my family Dr ignored everything. I'm middle aged not even close to a 95 year old brain. Now I'm dealing with anemia past year down to 6 . I'm trying to not have any transfusions and go for natural health. If doesn't work transfusions after Christmas. Thanks so much for your time 😊

I get rocked by these attacks that harden and stiffen my neck and face and then once I’m gripped by it…it begins bending me and squeezing me.

I agree but I was told that my mri was fine. I did mine at 44 after dealing with aches, confusion, inability to speak, lots of forgetting and strange sensations. The report said “there are a few punctate t2 hyper-intensities in the deep white matter of the left frontal lobe.” When I searched this term for myself I didn’t interpret it as fine.

I had an MRI in November of 21 due to many unusual symptoms. The MRI came back completely clear. A year and a half later, I had a second MRI due to increased and new symptoms. That MRI showed white matter lesions and atrophy. Both were brand new from 18 months prior. My neurologist completely dismissed it as normal aging. I was 38 at the time and having daily, debilitating symptoms, including what she believes are focal awareness seizures and incontinence. But yet, the lesions and atrophy are simply normal parts of being in your 30s 😒

[@22bouha]

I’m 38 years old and was passively told by a neurologist about having white matter at 37 years old. I pressed for answers and she said mine is very advanced as what they typically see in the 60+ age group. I’ve never smoked, drink, and eat 80% clean. I’ve a healthy weight and zero predisposition to this disease (no diabetes, no hbp, etc.). My family and I are so confused why I’ve this. I just went to see the doctor again last week because I’m losing motor skills on my left side and now being told the white matter has increased. And being told there’s nothing they can do. I’ve 3 young kids so I’ve everything to live for. I’m researching left and right on how I can help myself. I wake up with pain and go to bed with pain. I remember telling my mom that inside my brain feels sooo exhausted like when you do a big workout but we all laughed it off.

[@BeSoSerious]

I've been trying for a year to find out why these episodes are happening to me. Strong smells especially seem to trigger head paradigm and tightening of the right side of my body. I feel like a balloon about to pop. I also have extreme stiffness, and constant need to pop my neck and upper spine and an out of place rib on my right side that won't go back in. I never thought they were all connected but my mri sl came back as "normal" They noted the t2 flairs and I googled it and ended up on this video. This is giving me hope of an answer finally. I hope I can make sense of this enough to bring to my doctor. I just want my life back.

[@CaringmedicalProlotherapy]

Kerria - we are sorry to hear that you are experiencing these episodes and symptoms. It sounds like you may have cervical instability however there is no way to determine that without doing diagnostics. We are so glad that you have come across our account, we have a lot of information on our website. Prolotherapy is a great treatment option for those with instability.

[@isabelringing1]

I habe almost your exact symptoms! I wish I knew what wss happening. Apparently lyme disease or mold can cause some of these symptoms 🤔

[@__Wanderer]

Interesting - is there a clear distinction between this lesion type and MS? I have MS which is an immune issue but also wonder what role the vascular system plays in this. BBB is likely also important in preventing leakage / damage.

[@Pancaketurtle123]

I was wondering if cervical instability could cause phantom smells, I have trouble holding my head up a lot and this tends to happen at least once a day.

[@danielleo6855]

I have CCI, EDS, one T2 hyperintensity. Im on Diamox and my upper cervical chiropractor has been helping adjust the position of my cervical spine ... This makes me want to ask them, insist tomorrow to send me for prolotherapy. Im so so emotional how i knew something was wrong and now im finding all the answers. Ive been so out of my mind. My grandma recently passed away from Alzheimer's and repeated strokes. I identify with the stuff she used to say thay was altered thinking. She had horrible osteoporosis and at the end of her life her upper spine was almost horizontal with the floor, she could not look up.

[@MrsPaulaTorres]

That’s horrible. I’m seeing both Hauser and his referred to Jeffrey Middleton and they both have said not to have manual spinal manipulations. But I have hEDS, and had as Hauser said 97th percentile intracranial hypertension, meaning the worst 3% I thought I’ll die at 32, had severe pots, lived medicated, felt seizures and couldn’t read a line for my children, it was a nightmare ONE ☝️ adjustment by Brian Hutchinson got me off of the beta blockers I was on for a year and a half Of course I applied Hausers advice on laying down every hour for 5 minutes in proper sleep posture, and didn’t turn my head to the right side for 3 months My face swelling went away Weight dropped after getting off of the meds I’m alive ❤ Your gram’s definitely suffered due to not having proper care and proper advice how to straighten that posture Prolo works. Dr Hauser helps. Hutchinson helps. Middleton helps. They’re all worth every dollar spent, truly! 🎉🎉 I was always told I have heart arrhythmia, that’s BS When my neck alignment is proper, I have no arrhythmia Braces help Chiropractors should NOT be manually adjusting your upper neck tho, not if you have hyper mobility They should be using the vibrational tools as Hutchinson uses No “hammering neck turning with cracking” that’s a big no

[@danielleo6855]

@@MrsPaulaTorres this is very interesting, it sounds like these Drs have really helped you. I'm getting upper cervical work done but it's not large adjustments like you're thinking... They take an actuator and make very light tapping adjustments on only one spot on my axis. They have taken precise measurements and angles with X-ray. I'm also not needing beta blockers as much I was having symptoms of hyperPOTS and things are so much better now. I didn't know about the lying on the right side thing what is that for?

Thank you. This makes so much sense. My problems started with bulging discs in my cervical spine. It all adds up. I was told the lesions on my brain were due to migraines, which left me flummoxed as I’ve never knowingly experienced migraine. They said the lump on my head was caused by dried blood as a result of hitting my head. Again, this confused me as I hadn’t hit my head. Wondering now if this was actually due to brain bleeds. Thanks again Dr. Hauser, you’ve given me a way forward.

I have an abnormal distribution and tiny flair hyperintensities in the brain white matter, the concern would be early demyelination/MS.

It is likely there is a blockage in another major vein like IJV compression which could be a result of cervical instability but the only way to determine that is by doing diagnostic testing like neck vitals and DMX.

[@Marissas83]

@CaringmedicalProlotherapy thank you for the response! My vascular surgeon found Eagle's Syndrome in my CT scan, so I may have to have additional work done after the jugular bypass surgery that he is planning to do!!

[@Marissas83]

@CaringmedicalProlotherapy also, my collateral veins aren't enlarged... The docs told me that my body created them to compensate for the jugular occlusion.

💯 I'm in my 40s and I have white matter lesions b/c my internal carotid artery is getting compressed by my cervical spine. I have Dysautonomia, EDS and POTS I also have thoracic outlet syndrome and when the artery in my brachial plexus is pressed I lose the pulse in my right hand. As if this weren't enough I have hypoperfusion and hypercapnia upon standing and sitting. I did all the research, I went out of my way to get out of pocket testing and have all my test results. Do I go to a neuro chiropractor, neurologist and/or both? Thank you for your guidance.

[@lisabruyntjens2576]

Thank you so much for your knowledgeable information. I had a Ct due to an injury. However the other part of the brain came back With. White matter peri ventricular hypodensite chronic microvascular changes. Ischemic. IAm 70 so is this more age related. Iam getting nervous. Made appointment to see Neurologist.

[@wahidamorshed3113]

Can you tell me please? Is DR Hauser saying white matter disease is curable by prolotherapy and curve Correction?

[@22cobbie]

Can you see this on a CT scan?

[@leslyrae6025]

Great much needed video. Thank you Dr Hauser. I appreciate what you're saying and agree that our devices are part of the issue. I don't believe that's all that's going on though. What about glyphosate's destruction of our collagen? I don't ever hear you mention that. Are you aware of how it mimics glycine, creating faulty collagen? There were always those that had their nose buried in books and this was never an issue. Why are young people having so many back, shoulder and knee injuries? Mold & glyphosate were what did in my structural system. There's something going on that extends beyond looking down at our devices. It's quite an epidemic and is affecting younger and younger people unfortunately.

[@CaringmedicalProlotherapy]

The lifestyles of younger people have changed dramatically throughout the years and although devices is not the only cause it is a big one! Things like diet, exercise and work environment play a huge part in this - for example a lot of younger people are working from home now, that could be they are sitting on their couch or at the kitchen table with poor posture. Food for thought!

[@societyseven777]

Im in East Tennessee, but I want to come see you. Im 49, have minimal foci T2 FLAIR Hyperintensity on my MRI. It does say white matter disease. However, I have numerous MS symptoms, including the hug. The neuro office called and said "your MRI is normal"...what? Nothing about that is normal. Ugh...

[@CaringmedicalProlotherapy]

We are so sorry to hear this and unfortunately we hear it a lot… it’s not normal and we are glad you are looking into alternative treatment options. TN is not too bad of a trip - if you find you can make it down this way we’d love to see you! Give us a call - in the mean time, we are praying for your healing.

[@basicbarks]

Doc when I came to you in 21, didn't have any white matter. Did a CTa and mri, I have them now...planning on coming back for another appointment

[@CaringmedicalProlotherapy]

We are sorry to hear this but look forward to seeing you again!

[@KitKat-ob6nz]

I was told by one NIR that lying backwards when you have a MRI that the jugular veins block off but then another NIR said the opposite. I've got a partially occluded jugular vein and an occluded jugular vein when lying flat, hence maybe this is why I hate sleeping on my back.

[@CaringmedicalProlotherapy]

This is interesting! We have found that sleeping position definitely matters and everyone is different! Although you are not sleeping during an MRI you are laying in a similar position. While conducting neck vitals at our office, it has been made clear that certain positions (depending on the individual) can worsen symptoms and compression IJV as well as the vagus nerve.

[@KitKat-ob6nz]

@@CaringmedicalProlotherapy when I was lying flat it was during a MRI. The person who did the cerebral angiogram said my blood vessels are fine, and the other thinks the styloihoid processes are pressing on the jugular veins but they haven't done a cerebral angiogram yet (not sure why they said this if it's showing up in the MRIs or if this may be an assumption at this point in time. I no longer have length in my neck due to bulging discs and I was born with kyphosis. Thinking maybe if I get my neck stablised then the styloihoid processes won't be near the jugulars.

[@luzvargas1063]

Now I did correlate my 10 months of severe intrabrain pressure due to cervical instability and cervical stenosis in multiple levels Messed up my brain toileting so ALL of the sudden isquemic area along with white matter. Also sadly that radiologist did not categorize or describe size or number of lessions. What a poor job, then we are all left to deal with all this.

[@Eastsidenucca]

Diagnosed yesterday with chronic microvascular ischemic disease yesterday. Really thought I had undiagnosed MS because of cognitive decline, neuropathy, disinhibition, deep depression, foot drop etc. Now I'm waiting to find out how I got this. Only thing I can think of was a bus accident in 2016 where I probably had a concussion after hitting my head, also in 2022 I was protecting my nephew who had cerebral palsy from a drunk step dad and he hit me on my head 3 times with a large solid marble object. I'm just so lost and confused and this disease has lead to me losing everyone I lobe from depression and mood swings. I lost family and my oldest children really don't deal with me because they think I don't love them but I just have nothing good to offer them I'm so depressed and tired all the time...pray for me

I found out I had WMD after suffering from having my head bent backwards for an EGD. I howled in pain for a month as the pain spiderwebbed out across the right side of my head, I had no insurance and waited till I did to go to the dr, ER’s suck and do nothing. Dr gave me gabapentin to stop the pain, which saved me from suicide I was planning. She referred me to a neurologist that ordered an MRI and found out I have congenital c1-c4 fusion. I have a history of migraines that started at 18, and car crash a few years before my problems started. I’m in misery and have bad pressure in my head when standing when it’s hot outside. I’m scared and no one can help me. I’ve stopped any urge to defecate and have to use an enema or 2 daily and suffered serious diverticulitis once. My neck issue started in my 40’s, I’m almost 57 now, unsteady and brain fog at times. I rotate about 30 vitamins and minerals, haven’t drank soda, drank alcohol, used fluoride or deodorant for 11 years and eat organic and gluten free diet.

I’m 25 and have white matter lesions on my brain - 4 in the periventricular & 1 in juxtacortical - got scared it was MS because of family history but it only takes up .03% - my neurologist said my mri was fine and they’re benign. Still confused and needed further information. Still having intense symptoms. Wondering if it’s related to my PTSD. Thank you for this video and information

The surgeon did fusion was perfect but i suffered hand weakness not related to NO STROKE.. Here is my question; Can a hand go weak from a myeling issue>

[@jmwhitt]

Re small vessel dx, people need to decrease fat in diet and lower cholesterol, both cause blockages in capillaries and small vessels which can also damage spine disks and contribute to arthritis

[@CaringmedicalProlotherapy]

You are right, both can affect diet but not for everyone! There is a difference between good and bad cholesterol. But we always recommend that individuals change their diets to better assist in the healing process!

[@cameroncooper4291]

Thanks Doctor Hauser but is it reversible if the environment is changed , RE: no internet or bending for the phone and strenuous exercise

[@CaringmedicalProlotherapy]

Not always guaranteed. We have patients who just need to work on their curve, in this case yes, making those changes is enough. However instability is degenerative, meaning it will only continue to worsen over time unless there is regeneration - aka prolotherapy.

Dr Hauser I’m in medical school in Chicago I have had a doctor do prolotherapy injection in my pelvic for interstitial bladder cystitis and it made it worse. side effects were huge.

When i was only a teenager i had neck pain and migraines i found out through a chiropractor x ray that my neck was too straight. I did continue to have adjustments for a while but eventually stopped going and stopped thinking about it. I never took it seriously cause i was yonge and thought how can i have something wrong with me so yonge, i assumed they just tell you you have something wrong so you keep coming for adjustments. Fast forward into adulthood, now ive had episodes of vertigo, and visual disturbances, and often wake up in the morning with a feeling of cloudiness in my head that i end up taking a nap to alleviate. So here i am starting to take all of this seriously, but honestly i think its the school structure that involves hours upon hours of students sitting in their desks looking down at their work and writing etc that sets these issues up from a yonge age, maybe every student needs to have prism glasses from the get go.

Can cervical instability change the optic eye nerve?

[@CaringmedicalProlotherapy]

Cervical instability has an effect on the eye! Increased brain pressure (from cervical instability) can cause an increase in eye pressure causing the pupils to dilate and excessive cerebrospinal fluid encroaches on the optic nerve causing damage.
