Firstly, I wouldn't trust anything he has to say at this point, and I'd be moving over to another doctor with all my files to discuss my alternatives.

Secondly, TRANSIENT "new, enhancing" lesions are to be expected with a flare-up. What's more important is if there are more "classic, old, scarred, mature MS lesions or plaques", and even then, we should expect to accumulate about one a year, as per my neuro:

wow, kitty and Dejibo, you two hit the jackpot of horrible doctors. make you experience known by giving them reviews online, thru google maps (i think) and rate a doctor and whatever else you can. they need to be punished imo. sorry you have been mistreated this way! Kitty, please find a new neuro, and Dejibo, you should refuse to be seen by the idiot doctor...
