DX'ed about 3 years ago now, neurologist suspects disease activity for at least 5 years at point of dx, so I figure a good 8 years roughly with the disease under my belt...

I work a full time job and I don't suffer from symptoms day to day, except for sensory like burning/tingling (mostly from the neck up).

Medications for pain can control this for the most part, I do have break through pain though. I've not taken a day off work for 'MS' symptoms since returning to work at the end of 2008.

Everyone's very very different...
