Hi. I have recurring/remitting. The first thing that tells me I am having an episode is my vision and then I lose it competely in my left eye. Next comes the painful shocks up and down my back. Loss of balance .... you know the rest. I pray that mine stays as recurring/remitting. It is possible. You know some people have MS and they don't even know it. Or some people have only one attack and that's it. I have had 4 in the past 6 years. 4 full blown attacks. I was experiencing little "components" way before that as we already discussed.
I am very sorry that yours progressed. You can babble mail me anytime you want to talk. I'll keep you in my prayers.
hugs,
