Lesions

I got told over the phone on Tuesday that I may have MS as they found lesions on my brain and spine and I have questions before I go for my lumbar puncture in the next few weeks. 1.

Hello, so I have a question or just want anyone’s opinion or help if possible please. I first had optic neuritis in 2021, was put on steroids and eventually got better but did leave some perminent damage. I had my first baby in 2023 and after I started to slow down breast feeding I started to get some interesting symptoms. Every morning my hands would be extremely itchy not like dry skin, but from the inside it was driving me insane it was every day and then I started getting random pain either on the top of my head like a bad bruise or on my back which I even thought was shingles, cause it was so painful to the lightest touch, but there was nothing there I even went to the doctor and in about a week that pain subsided The hand itching and the pain on my head continued though. In January I had noticed signs of optic neuritis happening again, but in my other eye, I went to the doctors right away and they had sent me to the emergency room. I was put on Iv steroids and got an MRI I was there for about four days. They saw some white matter lesions in my brain, but it wasn’t clear because of movement. They then did a spinal tap which came out clear. I had gone home and had to follow up with a neurologist about a week after I got home? I had horrible symptoms I was holding my child and my knees gave out my hands were hurting. I was twitching all the time I could not sit still it was worse when I was laying down at night my body just would not stop moving and at some point I could not feel my foot I felt like it was in an ice bucket. I was extremely tired, and I would get random goosebumps in blotches on my arms for no apparent reason I started getting some bad headaches too I then woke up one morning and I could not lift my left arm. It was like it was asleep. I would get pins and needles and different parts of my body also but the muscle weakness in my left arm was horrible. I could barely hold anything. It is still like this to this day, but not as bad if anybody came up and touched me without me, knowing my whole body would spaz out almost like my reflexes were on high drive I have seen three different neurologist since the first neurologist is convinced I have MS the other two which I actually liked better and our MS specialists keep saying I may have it. They did a repeat of my MRIs and again had some white manner lesions in my brain, but they were identical and not in the usual spots where MS lesions would be so they am holding off on fully diagnosing me and want to wait and repeat and see if there are new lesions in the following months. I have not been able to work since since I have a physical job I have good days and bad days if I get sunburn the very next day my hands feel like they’re in a vice. The pain is horrible. I want to know what everyone thinks do I have MS are they just trying to cover their butts and wait or what

I was diagnosed in January 2025- i had numbness and tingling of my lower body. When i was in the hospital the MRI showed lesions on my brain and in my thoracic. I had one round of ocrevus in March. Just had a 6 month follow up MRI which stated lesions were still on my brain but have resolved in my thoracic with no signs of demylenating disease as it reads on MyChart. I don’t see my neuro until Aug7 but i was wondering if anyone has had similar where the lesion is gone now and no signs of disease in my thoracic
