I'll add only that EEG findings are a test result that points away from an ms diagnosis.
Not that one can't have that and a condition such as (for example) CNS lupus, BUT it's less likely and will slow down a diagnosis.
Ms lesions are more likely to be found in certain areas that weren't mentioned in your mri report (although as JJ said it could be due to the vague description).
As JJ said, none of your symptoms are specific to ms and a number are not found in ms. (Low immunity, dry mouth and eyes, joint and muscle pain (prior to gait issues), mouth ulcers) I would make sure, if your neurologist isn't well acquainted with Sorjgens and it's ruled out, that you search out a specialist who is. Lesions occur in more conditions than ms and I'm glad you're neuro is being careful. A misdiagnosis is worse than no diagnosis, as difficult as the wait is.
some of your symptoms "could" be associated with deficiencies. Have you had vitamins B12, d, magnesium levels checked?
I also had mouth ulcers; in my case they were related to gluten consumption. If you have any issues with gluten (celiac, non celiac gluten sensitivity) or casein, you may also have deficiencies. Mouth ulcers could also be a side effect of meds you are taking (I've also had ulcers as an adverse effect of two meds).
It's very tricky to unravel, and still could take some time. My own diagnosis (of ms, with a few rabbit trails because of vitamin deficiencies and med reactions) took 3 years. (((Hugs)))
Hi and welcome fellow ozzie,
One thing i've noticed with our Australian MRI reports over the years is that they often don't provided as much specific details or information as the states, your MRI doesn't actually mention anything that would be generally be suggestive or consistent with MS, bifrontal lobe lesions don't exactly rule MS out but they don't put it at the top of your potential cause list either.
4 months is a long time with conditions like MS, you have the same lesions pattern, size (micro vascular lesions are 1-3mm) and number as found before so your brain MRI is not at this stage particularly suggestive of anything. You also mention symptoms that are not generally associated with neurological conditions like MS eg joint pain, dry mouth and eyes, mouth ulcers, low immunity so it's highly likely that what your dealing with is something other than MS, top of my list of possible conditions would actually be Sjogren's Syndrome, then Lupus, though Lupus is known to be one of the greatest mimics and often as difficult to diagnose as MS.
I hope that helps.......JJ
