    Thank you!
    I was diagnosed with Cadasil but before the blood test to confirm this diagnosis my neurologist wanted me tested for MS because she never heard of Cadasil and my brain MRI showed all the typical lesions. Thank goodness for the radiologist who flagged my MRI in his notes to rule out Cadasil! I googled it and it made sense from for my mom’s side of the family where many family members died young of strokes and Drs couldn’t figure out what was wrong with them, including my mom. She was also mis diagnosed with MS. Unfortunately there is no treatment or cure for Cadasil, but the worst part is when drs want to prescribe the wrong medications (blood thinners) to us not knowing that will cause our brains to bleed!
    My mom died not knowing she had Cadasil and had been placed on all the wrong meds after her strokes.

    Andrew, great overview of CADASIL and how it can be distinguished from MS via Notch3 gene testing. This is an incredibly important distinction that doctors need to know about, especially in relation to where the lesions occur.
    Given the disease was described in 1993 and the causative Notch3 gene was discovered in 1996, the awareness of this disease in the medical community, even in the generalist neurological community, has a long way to go.

    Tremendous as usual. Dr. Lee, does HBOT have a role for stroke rehabilitation? How about secondary cerebral vasospasm following SAH? Humbly request a video....
