It is used to assist with diagnosis but does not signify severity of the disease. And to really drive us nuts, you can be diagnosed without bands since its only seen in approximately 85% of patients with MS. So I wouldn't worry to much over having 16, even though the number is unusual.

Other than that, welcome to the club
