I don't have MS (I have another neurological chronic pain condition) but my grandma suffered from Progressive MS. I believe she had a Type A personality, she was one of those people that always wanted to help others, put herself last, didn't have much time to rest and relax, was always on the go etc etc. From what my mum has said (I wasn't born when my nanan was diagnosed with RSD), the neurologist asked my mum and my grandad to describe my nanans personality has back in those days, if you had a Type A or B personality, you were more prone to developing RSD. Whether that is true or not, I don't know but I have seen many articles on the internet that say the same thing.

It is the same for my neurological condition (Complex Regional Pain Syndrome), if you have a Type A or B personality, you are thought to be more at risk of developing it.
