Severe vertigo

Who else has severe vertigo that has prevented getting an MRI? The new McDonald criteria define optic nerve lesions on OCT or VEP as relevant. Who has experience with this?

I haven’t personally had vertigo severe enough to prevent getting an MRI, but I know that’s a real issue for some people.


From what I’ve been reading, the updated McDonald criteria now include the optic nerve as a fifth area for MS diagnosis, and OCT or VEP can be used to show lesions there. So in some cases, those tests can help support a diagnosis when MRI is limited or incomplete.
