Hello, I went to a ear nose and throat dr for hearing loss and he sent me for MRI to make sure I diden't have a tumor and found that I had leasions my brain. He said that my brain looked like a zebra. I am 52 yrs old so I have probably had this for 30 years without knowing it. But now that I have been told about the leasions all of my symptoms make sense. I live alone with my dog Sparky. She is a Jack Russell. We've been together for about 8 years. I have 4 grandchildren. 2 boys and 2 girls. And thats about it.

Hi Hon-e-Bee: My brain looks like a zebra too! LOL! I hope you get a good neurologist. I have 2 adult kids too, no grandchildren yet, but they are working on it I am told.
Welcome to MSWorld. Please ask any questions or look around here while you wait. We are all friendly!
I am sure it was quite a shock for you, but perhaps a relief to know there was an explanation for what was wrong, and that it was not a tumor!
Take care

I have to laugh at your doctor's remarks about the zebra - That's a new one on me.

Glad to be here.
I'm sure that you-all already know that family and friends mean well. But they really don't understand how this illness affects us. So I am soooo glad that I found this site. And I am glad for the strict over site by the admin here. Yes I am looking very much forward to meeting with a neuro and hopefully starting treatment soon there after. It usuallly takes me about 6 weeks for my symptoms to calm down again. Thank goodness the weather has cooled off. That helped alot. Thank you for your kindness. It means aot. So I will be on here alot and look forward to getting to know folks on here.
