I have CMVD as well. From researching my own situation it appears that the areas affected in your situation (similar to my own) are associated with memory, balance, and mobility. Are you symptomatic? The second part of the statement just indicated that it is an ongoing process, which is to be expected with this disease. Have you had more than one MRI? Subsequent MRI's can show any progression of the disease. In my case they are able to quantify the number of lacunar strokes due to the CMVD. It will be interesting to see what they say at your consultation, please keep us posted. Good luck!

Thank you for your response. I have been feeling a bit alone about this. I don't know what to expect. Yes, symptomatic. I have 3 MRI progressions shown. I'm 60 years old. What is a worst-case scenario? My consultation is not until the end of December. I don't know how serious this is. I have applied for Social Security Disable Insurance. My right side is affected, top of foot up to the back of my calf. The right arm is numb also.
