re: Scared to death of my likely diagnosis

My mother had MS. She ended up losing all mobility and died over about a 10 year period. She did participate in betaseron trials that have led to life changing treatments that are available today. We lost her when I was 15.
What you should know and take away is that there are several different forms of the disease, some more aggressive than others. Even for the most aggressive forms, the prognosis and treatment options available today are lightyears ahead of my my mom had available 20 years ago to her. It is not the death sentence it once was.
Prepare for a journey that may not always be fun, but be hopeful. Your life is not over, not by a mile.
