I had a brain ct scan which revealed 3 white hypodensity shadows and i am waiting to see a neurologist and to have an mri scan. My gp said don't worry about it because it can mean allsorts of things but all that comes up is ms. I can't see what else it could be?

When I had my very first symptoms, 13 years ago, I went in for an MRI and they found a white spot on my brain stem. Not enough to diagnose MS, and my symptoms........lack of balance, unable to write my name, and slurred speech went away within days. So, I was told at the time that it could have been a small stroke, MS, or a brain tumor. The tumor was ruled out fairly easily when I had a follow-up MRI a year later. No symptoms though, so I went undiagnosed for 13 years. For many on this board, the road to an MS diagnosis is quite long. Try not to stress (easier said than done) because stress makes MS worse. Hang in there until you get a definite diagnosis no matter what it may be, and make whatever lifestyle changes you can in the meantime, like diet and exercise. Hugs to you!!

My 6mo twin DD's are EBF and just started rice cereal on the first. Everything has been going fine except this morning one of them had a diaper rash (lots of redness around her anus). I read this as one of the signs of an allergy. BUT I did just buy a different brand diaper yesterday (which they have used randomly before w/no issues). Do you think its the cereal or the diaper? Im ready to start...
