I don't even know if my question makes sense. A relative of mine has been diagnosed with MS five years ago. However she had abused cocaine, alcohol and whatever else for 20 years prior. She hasn't used since her diagnosis. Sometimes I see her do things, walk better, open something she says she can't in front of people, etc. She talks about the "lesions on her brain". From my undesrstanding these are dead brain cells. So, that is why my question if it is reallly MS.

I doubt it, a member of my family has MS, and doctors tend to go through every other possibilty before diagnosing it, since there's no effective treatment. It eats away at the outer lining of the spinal cord, which doesn't happen through drug use. Other symptoms can include personality changes and extreme physical fatigue that periodically relapses.
