Walking/gait problems came in at # 1 with 8 votes as the most outstanding condition. Pain/spasticity, heat/cold sensitivity , and cognitive issues came in with 7 votes each followed by fatigue with 6. foot drop and vision problems w/4 each. bathroom issues and numbness/tingling 3 each. I took some liberties with the categories, but did the best I could. Of course this is an unofficial survey but I'm stuck wondering, why when our bodies attack its central nervous system ,why is it the same nerves over and over again? Have scientist looked at this? Well any way , thanks for playing along it was fun.

Maybe confront your neurologist with your results and see what he/ she says. ๐Ÿ˜Š

Great job as a non professional. You could possibly get answers from the MS association. I'd be curious to see how it compares with some of their surveys.

Thanks for the information.

I think people grow closer when they share something in common. It was a fun task.

It's not the same nerves over and again. MS is a progressive disease, and the myelin attacks spread with time. More brain lesions, more spinal lesions in different locations. All within the CNS. And, existing lesions get worse, causing more disability.

Not what you're looking for?
