My sister was told she had 3 mini strokes n a tumor on the brain . Now they r telling her they don t think she had mini strokes n that they don t think its a brain tumor but there are white shadow or spots on the test she had. What r they looking at or what could it be? She is experiencing dizziness , especially in the morning n felt like she was going to vomit. She had an episode that her vision and hearing was affected. She seemed confused n when she had to sigh her name u couldn t make out what she wrote. That was 2weeks ago .
Hello! Thank you for asking on Chat Doctor! Regarding your concern, I would explain that her symptoms could be related to different causes: - Multiple sclerosis- inflammation or a brain infection-cerebral vasculitis would like to directly review her brain MRI for a second professional opinion. An MRI with intravenous contrast would give more information than a simple MRI. A lumbar puncture may be needed (if no contraindications) to study her cerebrospinal fluid and determine the possible causes. You should discuss with her doctor on the above issues. Hope you will find this answer helpful! Kind regards,
