I read our previous communication a couple weeks ago including the discussion on different things white matter lesions can represent. I can understand your concern about these lesions, but unless they are causing clinical problems that are specific to these areas (frontal lobes control eye movements, personality changes, and strength in your legs as well as other less prominent functions) or are pushing on other parts of your brain or are suspicious for tumor or your docs are baffled by them and think it may be something serious, then there is no reason to remove them. Especially if they're small, clinically silent, and non-specific. Brain surgery as you know from your prior experience is not a simple outpatient procedure. It carries with it risks of infection, bleeding, permanent neuro deficits, and the risks of anesthesia. I have not personally reviewed your films nor have I examined you. So that's the best I can tell you. Sit down with your neurologist and talk about the findings on the MRI. Good luck.
Hi, I saw you mentioned that you posted previously and I went and read that post. You asked where you can get info on frontal lobe and what it controls, try this site out: http://www.neuroskills.com/index.html?main=tbi/brain.html
I hope this helps.
Thank you for taking time to answer my question. I do appreciate it. I sometimes tend to think on the end of the spectrum when it comes to lesions or tumors. Thanks again.
I just wanted to thank you for answering my questions, I know sometimes I overreact because I dont want things to get worse.Thank you again for ansering the question
