Hi Nancy and Welcome to the Forum.

Hmmmmm Mild MS. Some people with MS start out with a mild form of MS but, most of the time that is temporary. It's mild until it isn't.

I had a mild form for almost 20 years and then the exacerbation from hell came at age 51. I tried the MS Meds but I went right to SPMS in due time. I am on LDN now, and it seems to be keeping me stable.

I suggest you talk the MS Med. choices over with your Neuro and see what, if any, He/She suggests. None of them is a cure but can keep the exacerbation rate down and perhaps slow your progression of disability.

I hope your MS stays mild for years and years. If it stays mild, you could opt to wait on an MS Med. Maybe they'll come up with a cure soon. They didn't have any Meds for MS when I started out, and since I stayed Mild for so long, I guess I didn't need them.

Good Luck and come back to tell us how you are doing.
