MS lesions most commonly involve white matter areas close to the ventricles of the cerebellum, brain stem, basal ganglia and spinal cord; and the optic nerve.

Conceptual reasoning deficits are common in patients with multiple sclerosis (MS) and are typically associated with focal lesions involving the frontal lobes.

This was posted by a member a long while ago but I'm sure it still applies. I've referred to it many, many times and have it "saved" on my desktop!

Thanks for re-posting this, Kelly! I had it saved forever, but then my computer blew up and I lost it...

Default 5% of MS patients have 'no' lesions...
This is said by the National MS Society.

http://www.nationalmssociety.org/sea...start=0&num=20

About 5% of people, who are confirmed to have MS on the basis of other criteria, do not show any lesions in the brain on MRI.

True and most of my lesions are in my spine, so I'm told. I can't walk but my brain is fine.
