Well now, this radiologist possibly is extending himself a bit far into the diagnostic process, which is not his role. It's up to your neurologist to decide whether your situation warrants a CSF analysis (lumbar puncture). Also, a contrast enhanced exam (meaning another MRI, this time injecting contrast dye), would show whether any of the hyperintensities, which are spots on the MRI, are currently 'active,' but wouldn't determine what they actually are. So I think he's getting ahead of himself here. Anyway, I mention this stuff, which may be gibberish to you, as a way of saying I don't find the doctor who wrote this interpretation very confidence-inspiring.
But back to basics here. Your MRI is normal in most respects. He does see some lesions in the periventricular and subcortical parts of the brain, as well as in the pons part of the brainstem. These are areas that MS often attacks, and this is where your neurologist will be focusing. He says that these lesions are more than is expected in someone your age. (But you are 38, so none should be expected!) The lesions don't look like, to him, demyelination, which is what happens in MS, so then he mentions that you have a history of migraines and hypertension, both of which can cause the abnormalities he notes. Ultimately the radiologist is saying, 'I see some issues but am not guessing what they are, so Dr. Neuro, please investigate further,' which the neuro would do anyway.
Have you had a neurological office exam? Balance, strength, eye tracking, sensing various kinds of touches, etc.? This is not a 5-minute deal--doing it thoroughly takes time. Have you had any other kinds of testing thus far? I'm assuming you've seen an ophthalmologist (not an optician). What was the outcome of that? Pinning down what's wrong is complicated, and a lot of things have to be eliminated. There is no specific test for MS, and the MRI is just one part of the puzzle.
I am no doctor, just an experienced patient, so of course I can't tell you what's wrong. There are quite a lot of potential causes, which a neurologist is trained to investigate. I do know that eye problems in MS tend to be one-sided (as do most MS symptoms). However, a competent neuro, along with a competent ophthalmologist, should be able to help you. It could turn out that migraines are at the root of this, since migraines can be very complicated, and it could turn out that your blood pressure is contributing to your symptoms. Or it could be MS, or something else entirely.
Keep plugging at it till you get some answers, and good luck.
