Thanks, people.

Ok, it's been a year since a doc that I respect and trust says it's ppms.
Even though I said early in the post that I wasn't sure, I actually do believe him.

My only sticking point is, why is the progression so slow?
I'm stuck with being limited in what I can do. But since I can still get around, life demands that I keep going.......which completely kicks my butt!

So, I wonder how others that have ppms now, felt early in their disease when things got more difficult. I want to compare things with them to see how long before it gets worse for me.

I'm in limbo because, I can still function but functioning really takes a toll on me and I don't know whether to push through and risk getting weaker too fast, or rest as much as possible in order to preserve any strength I do have.

All of what I described is what makes me just a little unsure about what I have.

I realize that there isn't much that can help any of the demyelinating diseases, but I kind of was the most accurate picture of what to expect down the line.

With everything that I have read, I can't find very many people that describe their symptoms like I do.

I will hop over to the other ppms page and see whats up there as well.
