ive had ms since 2001 dx by first neuro now first neuro moved way out of state and referred all patients to an ms specialist. so i go to him he does all the tests over again and decides you do have ms. ive been having eye pain which feels like a pressure like stabbing piercing at times so i go to a pain specialist. he orders a mri of cervical spine it found an avm near my brainstem to near c1. i am so mad at this new neuro for not doing anything for me. so this may be the cause of my eye pain that ive had for almost a year. my new neuro never ordered a cervical spine mri. so now i had to get my family doc to order a cta because he the neuro would not order it. some ms specialist huh? this thursday i go have my cta of my brain and neck. they are doing both because the avm is between my brain stem and c1. i guess you call that the cervicmedullary junction according to my mri report. what are prominent flow voids? it says they are seen later and dorsal to the cervicomedullary junction. i have been telling my new neuro about this pain since i seen him for the first time in december. he did not once order a cervical spine mri or seem interested in treating any problem i had. thank god my my pcp. the last mra i had done is when i had 4 seizures after the birth of my daughter 8 uears ago. and it showed something on the p3 segment of the right posterior cerebral artery. i dont know if these things are related to the one on my cervicomedullary junction. i was so out of it then i dont even remember them doing anything to me after the seizure.
