I recently had a brain MRI with and without contrast it showed scattered lesions in the periventricular, I’ve had numbness/tingling, fatigue, dizziness, urinanary issues and visual difficulties for a while now, I saw a neurologist who ordered a scan of my eye and a LP. I’m scared?? Do I have MS??

Your neuro will be able to get a better picture of what's going on, and determine the cause of your symptoms, after all of your test results are in.
Waiting for results can lead to anxiety and fear, and most of us can certainly relate to what you're going through. It's not a very pleasant place to be in, to say the least.
Good luck with your eye scan and LP. Let us know what you find out. We'll be here!
If you have any questions, just ask and we'll be glad to help, if we can.

If I understand correctly, your Neuro and the staff do believe that your test results are suggestive of MS. The remaining test to possibly confirm the diagnosis of MS is the LP, is that right?
