What's missing from this list is Bartonella.
Several years ago, some researches cultured Bartonella Henselae bacteria from a biopsy of small white matter brain lesions.
Since neurologic Lyme Disease doesn't always cause brain lesions, some LLMDs believe it's the coinfection of Bartonella that's actually causing them.
I'd like to bring this up because a new member (in the UK) was asking about a definitive dx from an MRI.
All I know what ''it's difficult" and needs to be looked at by someone who can really read them, interpret them etc.
Yes, thank you so much for this post! Very helpful!
I found it really interesting. My LLMD is getting copies of my MRI of the brain from when I was in Texas and was told I have brain lesions and some of my white matter was destroyed and will never come back. The doctors there won't give you a copy so my LLMD is getting it from the facility that took the pictures.
Thanks for this.
