Did a lot yesterday, is it normal to just be completely wiped out the next day?

I'm struggling to keep my eyes open at some points

I’m Tori :) My head still hurts from all the information I’ve received in the last few days. I went into the MD for a weeklong bout of vertigo(which I’ve never had before) and nausea. She did an MRI as a precautionary scan to make sure it wasn’t a stroke and that is when they found the lesions and such. He is 80% certain MS is what I have, but he has to do blood work to rule out MOG and NMOSD before starting treatment. Why can’t I just KNOW! He said I have textbook MS lesions but there is a larger lesion than typical for MS so he said that is what he wants to check out! I’m very grateful they got me in so quickly but that’s big news to sit with maybe or maybe not :(

How often should a MRI be completed?

Good afternoon and Happy Holidays. Just wondering how often an MRI should be done by your Neurologist? I was diagnosed 2 years ago while hospitalized, and none have been done in the interim. Thank you, Scott
