Detailed Answer:
Hi XXXXXXX
Thanks for being here on HCM again.
I am Dr.Ajay Panwar,here with you,once more.

Of course,I agree that intermittent paroxysmal pains are common in Multiple sclerosis,which may last for short duration(even seconds)as in your case.

If MRI picture was suggestive of Multiple sclerosis,which is obviously a non-vascular intracranial disorder,I would rather say that these short duration intermittent pains are a part of disease process.

If your therapy is not responding,you may switch to alternative disease modifying therapy.We have several options out there for MS like interferons,BG-12,Fingolimod or Tysabri. You need to have a discussion with your treating specialist regarding this.

Hope this helps.If you have some further questions,I shall be glad to have you in follow-up.

Regards
Dr.Ajay Panwar,
