MRI scan and your opinion

Hello, my name is Rebecca and I'am a 33 year old female. I recently had a MRI done on my brain because my endocronologist ordered one because I have had fatigue, tingling in hands, numbness in hands, weak legs, and sometimes memory loss. Anyways my MRI came back abnormal with two shadow spots on my right cerebellium deep within the white matter. The radiologist told the neurologist that it looks like MS but the neurologist said he doesn't think it is anything, but he said he would not rule out MS, also he can't tell me what it is. I'am very frustrated! I have had these symptoms for three years and just didn't pay any attention to it thinking since I had my thyroid removed last year because of cancer that it was my throid causing these symptoms.But since I have had that tooken care of I don't Know why I feel worse.I mean I have extreme fatigue and the numbness and tingling happen at least every other day! I just want to know if my MRI came back abnormal with shadow spots is this ok "just something I should let go"? Thank you for your time it is greatly appreciated!

In the presence of neurological symptoms and abnormalities on the MRI, I would seek a second opinion with another neurologist.  Yes, people can have multiple small abnormalities that mean nothing, but you deserve more than "I don't think so."
