Thanks for posting this!!!

Buried in the Times story is a reference to Ampyra, a drug I had never heard of, but which might be of help to me as in addition to ME/CFS I may have chronic i.e. primary progressive MS (PPMS) with lesions so diffuse that they doesn't show up on MRI...so no diagnosis...but still lots of spasticity with me on 40mg of baclofen for six years now.

There was no Ampyra six years ago when I was screened to “exclude” MS, and no treatments for PPMS even if I had it, so this is new.

Now off to find a neuro doc who will give me a test Rx!
