What does the report say as far as the type of lesions. "Lesions" just means damage, but they will want to see the right size, shape and location before they might suspect MS.

If the lesions are indicative of MS, then the testing (evoked potentials, etc.) should show damage. Chances are that they would want to do a spinal tap for final confirmation, although I refused one and got the dx anyway.
