My neurologist said I only had one infratentorial lesion - in my right cerebellum. However, the radiologist report said there was white matter involvement around the right frontal horn, some periventricular punctate lesions, and a lesion in the right cerebellum. The other data was blown off by my neurologist. He then scheduled me for an LP. The tests came back saying I had 5 oligoclonal bands, so he decided I had MS.

If my LP had been clear, I would have had to wait for more testing before I was diagnosed, as I understand it.
