Specializes in Neurology

Concern for MS: As previously mentioned, subcortical lesions in a 19 year-old female with numbness and blurred vision is very concerning for multiple sclerosis. I would schedule an appointment with your primary to discuss, and/or see a neurologist for evaluation and treatment. Take care, and stay healthy!
