Hi, my daughter has sarcoidosis and recently had MRI of brain as she is having bad headaches and some mental loss (forgetting to finish tasks and being foggy with instructions). she is on Methotrexate . MRI result says multiple foci of abnormal T2/FLAIR signalhyperintesivity ... both cerebral hemisheres, predominantly in periventricular and deep white matter . What might we be looking at?
Hi, Thank you for posting your query. Multiple white matter lesions as described in your daughters MRI brain report do not represent any serious illness. They are non-specific findings and can occur in a variety of conditions, such as migraine, lack of blood flow to brain, etc. They can also occur in acidosis. So, as of now, no specific treatment is needed for the MRI abnormalities. Please get back if you require any additional information. Best wishes, Chat Doctor. Ly/
