Q: MS induced by TB meds ?

Is it possible that MS can be induced? In 2005 I had to take Isoniazid for 9 months. I was in a car accident and had to have MRI's on neck and back. Everything is fine there but they have found lesions and want me to do another MRI to see if the lesions get any bigger. Possible MS? or something else? I was just wondering if MS could be drug induced?

I don't believe medication would cause MS however something as simple as a virus can turn the MS gene on in some people.
