Ct showing spots awaiting mri
Hi anyone have these results? I have many symptoms of MS and the doctors think that’s what it is. I had a urgent ct done today as there’s a long wait for MRI and my symptoms ar worsening
The CT showed 2 spots/lesions but they want a MRI before diagnosis.
Should I be concerned ?
Hi,
! I know waiting for tests (or tests results) can seem like an endless wait and it's HARD to wait when you're worried about your health.
If your physicians are cautious about your test results, they may be able to get you in for an MRI earlier. That said, it's normal to be concerned about a situation like this.
The good news is that your doctors seem to be on top of things and very proactive, which is a good thing. Have they given you a timeframe for how long the wait for an MRI might be? Are they willing to offer you any treatment options while you are waiting for the MRI?
Again, anything that may be MS can be scary, so allow yourself to feel whatever feelings you need to (concerned, numb, annoyed, etc). And don't hesitate to keep contacting your doctors. As I say a lot in this community, sometimes being a (polite) squeaky wheel yields results.
