Hi,
Some may remember my posts about something that was found on my brain stem when I had an MRI done in March 2009. Well last week I posted that when I had a repeat MRI done last week that when I phoned for the results from the doctor, they said all clear, normal.
Well today I saw my Dr and it wasn't as straight forward, the report read, normal scan, the abnormality found last a year ago is completely unchanged and is unlikely to be of any clinical significance.
My doctor says there is no need for any further action as there has been no change, and the headaches are migraines, which she wants to try me on low dose Amitriptyline for a month to see if that helps, and a nasal spray Sumatriptan if I need it. Should I start to worry again, or should I trust what the Dr says and as the abnormality is unchanged should I stop worrying,
Peter
