Look, the first year after the MS diagnosis feels the same as grabbing a "little" water from a fire hose. I'll admit I've never grabbed a drink from a fire hose now most of you admit you've never, people without MS, been diagnosed with MS. When I was diagnosed, neuros were still scared to make DMD suggestions plus I'd never heard of secondary MS (since I've learned a lot about MS and the different types there of) Still, I'm quite confused as to how a patient can jump from 1 type of MS to another. I've had symptoms appear, stick around awhile and then vanish as quickly (and I'm talking about months later). I know it's a hail Mary but there's always that and does it really matter if you have RRMS or SPMS because at the end of the day you still have MS

Doctor diagnosed me

Were you diagnosed with RRMS or do you think you could have PPMS? Even with RRMS you can have progression of disease from prior damage or old lesions while still having RRMS.

I was diagnosed in 2007 and just recently with Secondary Progressive. 1 Year was quick. 🤷‍♀️

A very knowledgeable Neurologist/PhD at the Cleveland clinic explained it to
Me. My neurologist sent me to him. He was concerned about my decline with stable MRIs. I am on Ocrevus which has shown it helps to stop any new lesions.my hope is that I won’t get any worse.Good wishes to you
