@msmarymac Typically with MS, some issues come and go while others may be permanent. Many patients have good days or periods short or long where they have no outward issues whatsoever. Others have permanent loss of function such as balance, eyesight, or hearing, or perhaps loss of bladder control.
There are also several types of MS such as Progressive, Relapsing, Relapsing/Remitting. It is a difficult disease to diagnose however an MRI of the brain and brain stem likely will show white spots (new legions) or dark holes (dead cell areas). Progress of the disease is measured by comparing MRI’s year upon year as well as new function issues.
New drugs out now a little more than fifteen years have helped considerably to slow the progression of this disease, in some cases stopping the disease to where a patient can stop the meds and no new legions are noted.
I certainly am in no position to diagnose or assume you may or may not have MS. That is something a neurologist can determine however you likely have to ask for the testing.
