Default Brain lesions vs c-spine PPMS

I will try to make this short.
I started out over 2 years ago with ON and an abnormal MRI. It showed ON, a spot that lit up and an old spot.

They were in the white matter of my frontal lobe. They were not the shape of a typical Ms lesion but the radiologist said they were some kind of actue demylation.

c-spine was clean. T-spine was clean.

I was not dx'd at that time but I did have some neurological things going on.

10 months later I had another episode of ON and was diagnosed at that time baised on the my exam and history
(I have not given the compelte story, trying to keep it short.).

I have had continuious progression in my legs since my first episode of ON. I have never had a relape or remission.

I had another MRI this week and it showed a clean brain mri but lesions now in my c-spine.

My MS doctor is pretty sure it is PPMS based on every thing that has gone on in the past 2 1/2 years.

I have checked out Devics but I just do not fit into what Devics seems to be. I did not present in a way that would make me worry about Devices. I have been on a slow road down hill.

Well anyway I forgot my question but I am wondering if anyone here has PPMS and how you are doing.
