Hi, 
I had a MRI scan in December 22 and got my results in January 23, which showed white and grey spots, the doctors described it as a white ball with loads of black spot, which didn't mean anything to me, then the doctors said he has not seen a scan like that 🫣, as he doesn't work in that field, I have a neurologist appointment next week, I do not  know what to expect, my mobility is affected, i can not walk without crutches and i still struggling, I'm always overwhelmed with tiredness, it is affected me physically and mentally, I'm absolutely drained.
One of the doctors thinks is might be MS but the other doctors not sure, I won’t know until, i see an neurologist.

I just wanted to ask has anyone had white and grey spots on your head scan? If you have what was you diagnosed with?

Thank you, inadvance x

    Hi there @Ishy56032 thanks for reaching out, I can appreciate it must be a bit scary seeing something on the scan and not knowing what it is. Do you feel like you've got enough support with everything at the moment?

    I can't answer your question directly as I've never had an MRI scan, but hopefully some of our other members can share their thoughts!

    Hopefully the neurologist can help answer some questions for you next week, you'll have to keep us posted when you can :)

    Hello @MrWilliams

    Good luck with your MRI. I know it's easier said than done, but try not to worry. If the online community could help you in anyway, please don't hesitate to reach out.
