Brain white matter


Hello ...
I wanted to find out about the white matter in the brain ...
in My sister found a delay in brain white matter ...
Even gave antibody to it but is it did not help her ..
So my question is there another medication white matter ...
Her situation she is now in a wheelchair now and everything started at age six
Until then everything was good ...
She walked and ran and did everything as if she had no illness until the age of 6 and
Began at age six with her lack of balance and slowly the situation has deteriorated

Thanks in advance

Hi,
I am really sorry to read about your sister’s condition. I think she could be suffering from Vanishing White Matter Disease (VWM). Symptoms of the disease generally appear in young children who may appear to develop normally. The unique feature of the disease is that the symptoms get worse slowly during the course of disease, but there are episodes of rapid deterioration following an infection or head trauma. The patient may have a partial recovery following these episodes, or the episode may lead to worsening of the symptoms and condition. Unfortunately, there is no cure for the disease. The treatment is symptomatic and is usually given to delay the progression of the disease. Please consult a neurologist for the management of the symptoms. Hope this helps you. Take care and regards!
