There is a condition that is almost identical to MS but I don't think it causes any lesions. It's called Chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy. I'm not saying you have that but it might be something to consider.

Thank you for this! The only did an MRI on my brain two years ago but I didn't have lesions then

@legalese1972. I have a condition similar to MS, but it’s not. The MRI shows lesions just like MS (which I’m too old for). It’s called CLIPPERS—Chronic lymphocytic inflammation with pontine perivascular enhancement responsive to steroids. Needed a good neurologist to figure it out! Too many diseases!
