Guest guest Posted March 24, 2006 Report Share Posted March 24, 2006 Hi , I just got the dx of MS. What I know so far is that MS is a very unpredictable disease. You can have 1 attack and never have another or you can have intermittent attacks that leave with anywhere from no to major limitations. It can be progressive or it can relapse and remit. It's pretty complicated. The thing I do know is that there are DMARDs for MS just like there are for PA. Additionally, they have immediate medications to help with any present sxs. Wish I could tell you more than that, but I'm new to this. I hope you find out that you do NOT have MS. Please keep me posted, and feel free to email me off list to talk about this. Best, Jayson jbarsic@... Re: [ ] MS and pa? Interesting timing...My rheumy just scheduled me for an MRI to rule out MS... I've been on Remicade for 15 months. My PA is much better, but I have continue to have problems on my left side with muscle tension & spasms, and " pins and needles " in the left of my face. All of my left-side molars have been repaired or crowned. And judging from the condition of my favorite shoes, I drag my left foot a bit... All of these left-side complaints were present before Remicade, and I assumed they were related to PA in the C-spine. What am I facing if they diagnose MS? -- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
