I am a 45 year old female with a previous diagnosis of fibromyalgia, migraines, arthritis, vertigo, hot spots, and IBS along with several other things that go along with fibromyalgia. I also have very hyper reflexis. I have had them since I was young, but they seem to be getting stronger. I am now having problems with my short term memory, confusion and feeling dizzy. It has happened a few times that while riding in the car or driving the car I become disoriented and don't know where I am. Normally it doesn't last long, but once it lasted about 30 minutes and I was driving alone.On a MRI I recently had done (with and without contrast) they found a questionable area, 2mm in size, of increased signaling in the subcortical white matter of the anterior right parietal lobe. They said it was best seen on FLAIR images. What is a FLAIR image?I would like to know what this means. Does it mean there is a mass / tumor or a blood clot? They plan on redoing the MRI in 3 months, but that doesn't help me in the mean time.The report says that the finding is nonspecific in nature and can be seen with small vessel ischemic changes; changes from hypertension, diabetes, demyelinating process as well as others. I know I do not suffer from either diabetes or hypertension and my cholesterol has just been checked and the good and bad are all in the prefered range, although they could still be improved.
