I received my Narcoms Summer 2015 magazine in the mail. I do still like the physical copy, as easier for me to read an absorb than online.
Just curious, do other members participate in the survey? I dread filling it out, but then always so glad I did when updates are published.
They had their feature article on progression and research efforts. I think voices have been heard: "a lot of research going on worldwide, but until that research translates into a treatment, it says nothing. People want treatment". I know that sums it up for many on this board.
While it may be wishful thinking as he is managing director for Narcoms, I thought it was interesting that Dr. Fox thought in the next 5-10 years, treatments will be available that can "fully control the progression of MS". I truly hope he is right. It is a big statement for him to make. It would be amazing if it became a manageable disease for those diagnosed in that timeframe.
I also hope the research can find some repair aspect as well, for anyone who has progressed already, whether low or high level disability. I know it is another area of research.
