Had my second MRI today the first one three months ago was with and without contrast and only on the brain. Results highly probable but not conculsive. Today they did brain and spine no contrast I did query this but they said that is what was ordered I am under a great neuro that deals only with ms patients it seems strange no contrast oh well I guess I will know why next thursday when I see him.

Hi Michele,
Just wondering why yr having another MRI again if you had one just 3months ago ?? I'm having mine 2mrw after one year. My hubby thinks just my brain needs checking lol.. But my Neuro has ordered my Brain, neck and spine to be checked, hmmm dont think i'm having contrast though ?? Cant read his writting well on the forms. Doc's have the worst writing. Good luck with yr results Hope its good news for you.

My nero is taking the watch and see approach I have symtoms but nothing physical that can be seen numb tongue sent me on path and dizzy foggy feeling a few other things my first mri showed two small lession and the report read highly probable but not conclusive. The lesion are not in the normal pattern of ms my nero is in a ms clinic so they obviously think its highly probable (My dad had ms)
