I have a 1 small lesion that wasn't there on my MRI a year ago. I didn't start treatment until several months after last year's MRI though. Should I be worried?

laura, i have no expertise on this one, but taking you to the top for those with the knowledge you want!!
fyi, from what i've read here ... we all have some lesions! so welcome to our club! i wouldn't be worried, but i'm not a dr! Posted by Michelle M (Member # 7200) on :
I wouldn't worry. It may go away, with continued treatment.
It's also possible they just didn't spot it last time.
Hopefully, if you look again in a year, it will be gone!!!

Oh good, that makes me feel better. She actually wants me to repeat the MRI in 2 months though.

Every doc I've talked to says they go away with treatment more
often than not.

It's a sign for IV therapy, if you aren't already on it.

I just got my results from a brain and spine MRI, many...many white spots, over 30. I had only 4-5 7 years ago but stopped treatment becuase i thought i felt better. Just started again and will keep you posted after I get another MRI done. The spots that were on my MRI 7 years ago were gone after a good round of ABx. I have mostly neuro symptoms, who would have figured with that much stuff going on in my CNS Posted by ByronSBell 2007 (Member # 11496) on :
Another patient for IV abx and heparin.

I am moving back to the east coast for a while from Vegas to see my old docs and get better again. I can beat this thing and will never think different. You will see me here a lot!
