A member asked:
Are white matter hyperintensities abnormal in my case as a 28 year old? i have been dealing with a "few nonspecific scattered foci in the subcortical white matter" since i was 20 years old. i'm seeing a neurologist in 2 weeks for my symptoms?

For a young man at your age, those findings could be abnormal but you should patiently wait for the neurology appointment. Take care and best wish for your health.
