White matter is or can be non-specific, happening with migraines to strokes to MS - so the doctor has to do more tests to figure out the final diagnosis.
Venous (?) angioma -
"A venous angioma, also referred to as a "developmental venous anomaly" (DVA) or sometimes "venous malformation" is basically an extreme variation of veins draining normal brain tissue in that region. That is, a venous angioma (DVA) by itself is not necessarily "abnormal"; it's rather a variation of normal. However, having stated this, it should be noted that some studies have found that some veins (or all veins) that comprise a venous angioma have structural abnormalities compared with more normal veins. Regardless, most neurosurgeons regard venous angiomas by themselves as extreme variations of normal venous drainage."
Let us know what the doctor says.
