Yes, I have many lesions and chronic migraines as well. I also have a pineal cyst and lately have been falling alot. Found out I cannot walk heel to toe. Will be seeing new neurologist since previous is retiring. More MRI's will be scheduled. My balance issue is call Ataxia? My PCP today said I need to try physical therapy for my sciatic nerve and decide if that pain has anything to do with my balance???? The Neurologist will figure it out and I hope he does. I'm on mostly anti-depressants and sleep meds, along with many vitamins. Had to go off my B12 because my level was 2979!!! Was taking it for pain, but that's way too high. Stressful events in my life and pushing me on the edge of panic attacks so took my first Clonepam today. 0.5 dose, three times a day?!? Only gave me 10. So for only sleepy.

I'm not a smoker. I'm not a person that panics, I really just want some answers. I went to 12 doctors last year.I know in the morning with fibromyalgia you have stiffness, but I also shake really bad when I get out of bed. During the day when I start to get stiff I also shake and then randomly I will have tremors. Any suggestions?

Apparently the lesions are common for migraine sufferers and smokers. I was a smoker off and on for years, quit for good March of 2015. My neurologist stated it is common for both, and nothing to be concerned about.

I was told this too. The brain MRI's have shown the migraines. They look like star bursts. I have to continue brain MRI's at least yearly because they are watching a pineal cyst I have. Hope it doesn't get too big because it's very deep in the brain & difficult to remove surgically.
