From the CC, these "relapses" are a mix bag of different things that the docs ID'd as AEs and called it something like "relapse". Docs know what MS exacerbations look like. So if someone is having MS like issues with their eyes or their arm, etc., and it doesn't really fit common AE categories like fatigue or headaches, etc., the docs may call it MS relapse. I don't think this is a pure count of cases of MRI lesions which could mean something serious.

So if a drug improves communication between the MS brain and the MS body, and the drug is stopped, I would expect some of the patient's body to have MS like exacerbations. I know I am probably just repeating myself.
