Hi

You will find with this condition that everyone has differing symptoms and levels of severity so giving you an idea of timescales is just not possible.

My wife has been tired, sleepy and using a hoist for near 4 years now. It is a challenge but we have carers coming in daily to help as it is too much for one person.

All I say to people is limit risk of danger as injury usually causes further changes in the condition.
