DXed PPMS 2003 after a year (2002) of being called RR so could at least ttry DMDs. Nothing helped of course. Tried Novantrone - made me throw up and didn't help. On the list to be tested to be in clinical trial for Fingolimod.
Maybe it'll help, maybe not. (slowing progression) Anyone try Rituxin?? That interests me.

I was diagnosed with PPMS in February, 2003.
I don't take any medication for my MS. I take Flexeril for my spasms, Neurontin for my pain, and sub-lingual B12 for my B12 deficiency. I also have a peripheral neuropathy and consequently it is difficult for doctors to figure out what symptoms are attributed to MS and what symptoms are caused by my neuropathy.

DX in 1976...in remission until 1992..DX again RRMS. A few years later I tried Avonex for 7 months and Copaxone for 10 months....progressing right along. Reached SPMS around 2001/02. Progressed myself onto a walker, then scooter. In 2003 I started LDN and immediately stopped progressing.
 And here I is.. I'm doing Ok. I took Paxil and now Prozac for Anxiety and depression and LDN and that's it. I have a little spasticity and some weakness in legs and arms ( mostly on my left side), no chronic pain...just the usual aches and tingles. My biggest complaint is that I grew old with this @#$#^ MS and that was not in my plans.
