I have lesions now everywhere and some are active. Black holes as well now. My MS is in remission since September '96.
When my MS was active my first four years, I had two 5mm lesions; one near my vision field and one in my frontal lobe. Yet, I went to 9.5 on the Kurtzke Scale. I couldn't lift my arms and it affected my ability to breath...I fought for every breathe I took.
IMO MS is caused by a virus that attacks the brain stem and lesions can add to our problems. That Time Life book on the brain is IMO an excellent source of information about the different parts of the brain stem and their functions.
Take care.
