TL/DR: Has anyone had their first symptom episode and had no lesions on MRI, but then went on to show lesions later? In mid April, my left arm went numb and tingly, and got weak and heavy to the point I couldn’t play my instrument (I am a conservatory student). That feeling started last October in my perineum, then went away, then came back and spread to my arm, leg, and face in April. I was admitted to the hospital, and the first neurologist who saw my almost diagnosed me without an MRI, and ordered one “just to confirm”. The full body MRI came back normal, and I was discharged the next day and was referred to a neurologist who told me that since my MRI was normal, the symptoms must be psycho-somatic, or just in my head. I KNOW these are real symptoms. My arm went back to mostly normal (still have occasional bouts of neuropathy/tingling), but my left leg has slowly been getting weaker and has been having stability issues, my legs feel heavy like they’re encased in concrete after walking for more than 15 minutes, my crotch/face are still tingling, and I’m still having urinary incontinence and retention, and constiption/diarrhea with every BM. The neurologist I saw told me that if I did have MS, I would be seeing some leg weakness over the next few months, and that’s exactly what’s been happening. I haven’t had an MRI since the first episode, and I’m seeing a new neurologist on Monday. Has anyone here gotten diagnosed with no lesions? Has anyone’s initial MRI showed no lesions, but then went on to have lesions? Has anyone else had similar symptoms?
