More Than I can Handle

I just got a copy of my last MRI done recently. Looks like I may have MS on top of everything else going on! Isn't that a great way to tell someone? Just send them their results and say guess what, you may have MS! I am beside myself. I don't know what to do, hhow to feel about this, what can be done. I know I will know more when I see a neurologist in aa week and a half, but I am scared.Cry

AND I'm so very sorry you got your MRI results that way. 

 

Of course you're scared - that's quite understandable, and waiting makes it harder.  My heart goes out to you and you will be in my prayers as you wait. 

 

As you wait, maybe youmight write down ALL the questions you have about your MRI results and possible MS diagnosis for the neurologist - including specifics about treatment options (IF it's MS?).    

 

(Is there any possibility of talking to him/her on the phone beforehand?)

 

Please keep us posted.  Take care of yourself, too.

Ok, looks like I most probably don't have MS, but there is still the question of what are those white areas in my brain? I've been so stressed out I've made myself sick and changed my app't. for the cat scan twice now. I realize that's not going to help anything, but the fear is there and so is the feeling so sick I couldn't go now if I wanted to. I don't handle fear and worry very well. My mom always called me her "worry-wort." I sure need some major hugs!!!!
