The current issue of Momentum (NMSS magazine) includes the following blurb:
"Dr. Riley Bove, recipient of a Clinician Scientist Development Award, co-sponsored by the Society and the American Brain Foundation, gathered information on MS during menopause from 391 women enrolled in a large-scale, long-term study at Brigham and Women’s Hospital in Boston. The results show that disease progression changed at or around menopause toward a more rapid accumulation of disability. Further research will determine whether hormonal shifts are responsible, which may lead to a solution for women with MS going through menopause."

Yikes! As if menopause isn't bad enough! Is this true in your experience? I'm wondering if menopause caused worsening for you. Thanks for your response.
