That's exactly what happened to me.

If this is approved one day, as a treatment, it will be great news for those with early disease who are diagnosed expeditiously.
Problem with MS is that in it’s relapsing remitting form, some folks aren’t diagnosed until they’ve had the disease for many years. It’s not unusual to find a middle aged person diagnosed with “lots” of lesions, and have the neurologist tell them they’ve had the disease for years.
Symptoms are diagnosed as other things early on (a pinched nerve leading to numbness, vertigo from a ear problem, etc), and since they let up after the exacerbation, it’s not until the disability starts to accumulate (which may be later in the disease) that the idea it’s actually a neurological problem surfaces and someone orders and MRI of the brain and spinal column.
That would be me, at 48.
Yep, I have a friend with MS and that is exactly what happened to her. Years and years of symptoms diagnosed as something else and in the long term it was MS.
That's exactly what happened to me.
