It was dx'd in 1999 when I was hospitalized for pancreatitis.
Since then, my current PCP, & my neuro & I, have worked together to decrease progression and aleviate pain- thru meds and supplements. My EMG & NCV in July, showed little to no significant difference in tests done 4 yrs ago.
I think that supplimenting B12 has been the most effective for me.
