Default New to forum, recurring ON

Hey everyone,
This is my first post on the forum, and seen some great responses so far thats encouraged me to join!
I'm a 25 Year old male, been DX with MS for about a year now. Have had 7 clinical attacks over this time.
Started on a DMD and it has worked wonders for me with only 1 attack in the past 4 months since starting it. My main problem has been optic neuritis.
Of the 7 attacks 3 have been optic neuritis. First time lasted about 4 months followed up by more mild incident in the other eye. Have experienced it in both eyes.
The most recent attack was very painful. Lost a lot of my vision, but has since started healing but I've noticed problems that haven't subsided since the attack. Colors are permanently dim, have a flicker of light in my direct vision in both eyes, blurriness, hard time focusing and problems with distances.
Just wondering if anyone else has experienced this problem. Main reason i ask is because i don't feel comfortable driving no more, and don't know if these problems will subside or are permanent.
Thanks for listening!
