I read a statement this morning written by a recently diagnosed 50 something year old woman. She said:

...The older you are when you are diagnosed with MS, the faster it tends to progress.

I personally think that progression is just part of the MS lottery and that we're either allotted RRMS, PPMS or a combination of both with Secondary Progressive MS. I believe that's what determines our own progression, and not the age at which our symptoms began.
So far I've not been able to find anything to substantiate her statement so I decided to come here and ask the experts.
Have any of you ever been told that age directly relates to the type of MS one has, or can you remember reading it anywhere?
