A member asked:
My mri says, there are scattered flair hyperintensities in the white matter which are excessive for age and include a focus in the right middle cerebellar peduncle and juxtacortical focus in the left superior frontal gyrus. is this a sign of ms?

MS is but one of many potential explanations. Discuss these films with your doctor and the radiologist. Request a neurological consultation from an MS subspecialist, as these films need clarification and a definitive diagnosis is clearly indicated. If indeed MS, you are advised to start a high efficacy medication ASAP.
