I was diagnosed at 64. Symptoms have gotten worse but it's hard to say if it's because of MS or getting older. I have stopped trying to figure out what is the cause and try more to figure out how to deal with it. Have a blessed day
If diagnosed at age 60 do MS symptoms get worse as years go by?
Yes, it is rare to be diagnosed with multiple sclerosis (MS) at 60 years of age. Diagnosis after age 60 is considered very late-onset MS and accounts for only 1 percent of MS cases. People diagnosed at a later age may have other conditions that complicate MS treatment.
