pamgarner Every effort that is done to bring a cure to 'ms' is worthwhile. Hooray for you and perhaps 'ms' will soon be a thing of the past.

This is awesome! Glad you're doing this! TY! 🤗💕🌠
I look forward to hearing what you learn. Most of the time, older people with MS are not included in studies, with the consequence that little is available to distinguish changes due to age from those caused by MS. From my vantage point at almost 80, you are young and ought to be able to provide data points to help researchers make the distinctions that may be helpful to many, many people.
