Hi Jude - when I was diagnosed with TM, my neuros saw lesions on my spine - then (a year ago) I started seeing double - MRI showed lesion on my optic nerve - - boom . . . MS.

I hate to be spreading wrong information to others with TM. This is the only site I email to because of the fear of becoming confused about illnesses. My brain is simply not what is used to be. You know what? I used to be "Mensa" material but now I become confused so easily and am so forgetful that I hate to impart information to anyone. Is it because of the disease or the drugs I take to combat the TM? Love to all, Jude In a message dated 11/24/2008 2:21:21 P.M.

It is the one that progresses slowly but everytime she has and MRI she has more lesions on both spine and brain.

If one has lesions on the brain it is indicative of MS. Am I misinformed regarding this information? God Bless You, Jude In a message dated 11/24/2008 8:34:00 A.M.

I had mutiple MRIs done both with and without contrast.
