Confused by your logic Harry. Lesions may or may not cause problems based on location. Clearly the logic would be fewer lesions would lead to less chance of being in a location the could result in symptoms. Last time I checked, how patients felt was a pretty subjective measure especially in a disease like MS - my daily fluctuations in how I feel, get around are pretty large.
