hi, m 30 yrs old feeling tingling in my hands & legs and some weakness in my left hand and left eye twitching often.Also having pain in my neck and left shoulder going to my left hand.
I have done MRI of my brain & C-Spine,findings are below:-

MRI - C spine
Sequences- T1w & T2w, Axial - T1w & T2w
Impressions:-
The study reveals straightening of normal cervical spine
There is diffuse bulge at C3-C4 level intending the thecal sac.

MRI Brain
Performed on high resolution T1-Se,T2-FSE,T2-Flair,GRE Axial,T-2 Flair,T2-FSE Coronal,T2-FSE,T1-SE saggital diffusion weighted using head coil on 1.5 Tesla scanner.
Impressions:-
there are evidence of few foci of altered signal intensity appearing hyperintense on T2 and Flair sequence seen involving the bilateral periventricular white matter and centrum semivale.the findings are suggestive of non specific white matter lesion.
There is evidence of Mucosal thickening seen involving the floor of right maxillary sinus.

Hi and welcome,

From my understanding your symptoms, brain and spinal MRI results are not suggestive-consistent with a neurological condition like MS but is potentially suggestive-consistent with structural spinal issues ie "straightening of normal cervical spine" and
"diffuse bulge at C3-C4 level" and the last part regarding the "Mucosal thickening seen involving the floor of right maxillary sinus" could be an incidental finding of a sinus issue eg, sinusitis, allergy, recent virus etc

Hope that helps....JJ

Is there a need to go to a neurologist?
i'd speak to your dr about who you might need to see, he might even suggest a physiotherapist so speak to your dr...JJ
