@Vallyvoo Hello Vallyvoo, thank you for opening this discussion. I'm sorry to hear you've been having a relapse.  Let me tag some members who can share their experiences and advice with you.

Hello all, how are you today? Were you diagnosed with secondary progressive MS at the outset, or did your RRMS gradually progress into SPMS? How long did it take for that to happen? How do you cope with relapses? Can you share any insights or advice with Vallyvoo on treatment options?

Being told I had leapt from relapsing remitting was almost as bad. As being notified I had ms after numerous tests through the post. I was twenty had a young toddler. That's one hard pill to swallow. It knocked me for six
