I was never told '09 MRI showed CSV disease

@katie819. I can see why you are so distressed given the symptoms you've described. Are you referring to Churg-Strauss syndrome which is a disorder that is not a stroke but it is blood vessel inflammation? Are your symptoms getting worse and this is why you asked your neurologist for the MRI? When is the MRI scheduled?

I did not respond earlier because I am not "katie819", I am katl(lower case L)819.
Moving along... my MRI is scheduled for later this month. The condition is: Cerebral Small Vessel Disease.
Another one of my symptoms is something I have a difficult time explaining. When walking, it feels as though my LEFT foot is being pulled back. It does not matter if I lead with my right or left foot. It is an odd sensation; one that adds to my feeling unbalanced and afraid I will fall.
This is a nightmare.

I believe that she is referring to chronic small vessel disease.
