My Neurologist said I had transitioned to Secondary Progressive MS (SPMS) based on my stable MRIs and stable Neurological exams for quite some years. The "without" progression is apparently a 5% category and is based on the above as well as how long I have had MS. Without progression means I shouldn't get any worse than I already am.

However, I am very skeptical of "SP without progression" I mean, MS is considered a progressive disease...right

Anyway, I have a new Neurologist as mine retired last year so this as well as the possibility that I am still Relapsing/remitting will be discussed at my next appointment this summer.

ker0pi are you going to try an antidepressant? Please know they can help.
