为之奋斗了数月,又苦苦等候了数月的MRI终于做了,报告出来了。结果很出人意外-正常,除了一个跟我的脑瘤症状无关的小问题。
在这几个月的等候中我的病情的确大有好转,应该是好了一半,3月中旬开始头痛逐渐减轻,4月中旬开始逐步消失了,到4月底做MRI的时候已经只是偶尔才会痛,比如深度弯腰时隐约拉着痛一下,也就过去了。但是我的其他症状基本还在,虽然大大减轻。
比如仍然是感觉大脑肿胀,好像是被一口铁锅扣在头上,往下压,压得生疼,不是疼是一种挤压的压迫感。压得我难以动弹,头重脚轻平衡困难,头晕目眩,感觉仍然像是在梦游,有种漂浮感。四肢疲软如
无力,特别是右边。但是视力似乎恢复了,极度困倦瞌睡睁不开眼症状也基本没有了。
体重也开始回升。
如果我的大脑是正常,怎么可能有这些症状呢?这个病并没有就此消失了,我昨天又开始有头痛,5次,都是轻微的扯一下那样痛,一次是在后脑勺睡在枕头上那个部位。今天又没有头痛了。不知是不是因为前天我出去买东西走了两个多小时累着了所以昨天头痛?但是说明并没有痊愈。
那为什么报告会是正常呢? 就算现在痊愈了一半,那MRI上应该也会有曾经病重时留下的蛛丝马迹啊?请问学医的朋友们,这是正常的吗?
再看这个报告,觉得很神秘。好像跟其他影像报告不一样。内容如下:
Clinical history: Chronic headaches without symptoms consistent with a space‐occupying
lesion. Normal CT brain except for the presence of facial cellulitis.
Multiple sequences were performed through the brain.
Comparison study: CT head and CT head and neck and neck from July 14, 2021.
There are a few small nonspecific foci of increased T2 signal intensity in the hemispheric
white matter in keeping with mild small vessel disease. The brain and ventricles otherwise
appear normal. Right facial cellulitis has resolved.
Conclusion:
Mild small vessel disease is present in the hemispheric white matter. The study is
otherwise normal.

再看我去年7月做的CT,同样是头部:
FINDINGS: The ventricles, cisterns and sulci are normal for their size and configuration.
There is no midline shift, mass effect or hydrocephalus.
There are no intracranial hemorrhages. There are no areas of suspicious brain density.
The calvarium, central skull base and facial bones are unremarkable; no fractures.
There is mild soft tissue swelling and inflammatory change within the right inferior
orbital and premaxillary soft tissues, concerning for early cellulitis. There is periapical
lucency associated with the right maxillary lateral incisor tooth, with associated cortical
erosion of the surrounding alveolus; dental caries.
There are additional areas of dental caries within the mandibular teeth.
IMPRESSION: No intracranial hemorrhages.
Soft tissue swelling within the right inferior periorbital and premaxillary soft tissues,
concerning for early cellulitis. This is likely secondary to dental caries involving the
right maxillary lateral incisor tooth.
这个CT报告是符合一般情况下的报告标准的,报告了一些重要的基本信息,rule out 了大脑出血,脑瘤,中线偏移等等情况。而这个MRI报告却没有这样做,没有报告这些重要情况,没有具体地rule out大脑出血,脑瘤,中线偏移等等重要病况。只是用了简单一句话 the brain and ventricles otherwise
appear normal.来囊括了一切。简单得好像有点奇怪?
我这到底是什么病呢?会不会现在好转只是脑瘤的intermittent period呢?有诊断出脑瘤的网友,就是多年来有病情起伏,时好时坏,拖延多年的情况。我会不会也是这样呢?或者我是大脑出血,现在好点?或者跟我摔倒受伤脊柱有轻微弯曲有关呢?求医问药,请大家不吝赐教。
