[TMIC] Gunny--NMO patient needs Doug's info..
*Hi Gunny,* ** *We've a new NMO patient who was recently diagnosed. It was a clinical diagnosis but with a negative NMO IGG. The neuro would like an expert second opinion. They are looking to Johns Hopkins and Dr. Kerr. Can you resend me his contact info? I can't believe I lost it, but I did.* ** *Thanks!* *Gracie*
[TMIC] T-2 Lesions
Am going over the MRI report of the brain before seeing the neurologist. One notation in particular concerns me and I quote The FLAIR study demonstrates multiple bright T-2 lesions in the deep white tracts of both cerebral hemispheres, etc... Frank explained at one time that 1 lesion is TM, more than 1 is MS. I'm scared. What do you think? Many thanks for your comments. R

*Hi Regina, * ** *Not always. There are any number of conditions that can, and do cause brain lesions. The criteria for MS has to be taken in it's entirety, before a definitive diagnosis is made. * ** *Gracie (NMO since 2005) *
RE: [TMIC] T-2 Lesions
I have two lesions and have TM with no signs at all of MS.
