Yes, but I'm starting to get slow speech now. I think that might be a sign. 🤔

This is a great question! I wonder the same thing. My symptoms are getting worse, in fact, they’ve been slowly getting worse since diagnosis… like, I don’t even know what remission is really suppose to mean. I’m grateful for no NEW lesions, but of course we all know that doesn’t mean profession isn’t happening. It’s so scary. I’m always here to talk to anyone about this subject! 🧡

I was told by GP around 10 years ago that I had fibromyalgia. I've noticed more symptoms above and beyond Fibro and now believe it's MS. I have a brain scan referral, so going from there. I have experienced what I believe to be the MS hug, Pins and needles in hands, arms, feet and legs, bit of numbness in leg or patches but not much. Hard to know/remember alot so.... Itchy hands and fingers as well as feet, ankles and legs. Brain fog and headaches (random parts of my head) with blurry vision. Fatigue has been part of my life for 20 years but it's gotten worse. Heaps of other stuff. My question is, I've heard that lesions need to be on the MRI to confirm diagnosis, BUT I've also heard that's incorrect. So what's the latest news on this please? I'd also appreciate chatting with someone who has my symptoms that has been diagnosed. Thanks ladies
