I hope I see more on other series tomorrow because im getting off Ty (its a done deal) and if it worked i'll be screwed but worse yet - ive lost so much sensory function since last MRI how could brain and stem look better?
We'll see tomorrow.
It is known that the number of lesions and their appearance does not often correlate with the symptoms of an MS patient. The trial data for these drugs hang their hat most of the time on these lesion numbers. But the location of the lesions is more important and just a few can cause a lot of problems. Lesions can come and go so how a patient feels and their actual symptoms is a far better indicator of how a particular medication is working.
