I have been diagnosed with PPMS. At the onset of symptoms, there was only numbness in the left side of my face. They have steadily increased since April 2014 to include numbness, spasicity, weakness and twitches.
However, one thing I'm curious about is a correlation between the progression of symptoms since April to where I am now and where I will be in a further 6 months. Let's take today as the benchmark of symptoms. I have had increased symptoms almost weekly since June. Last night, I developed a new twitch in my "good" arm.
I understand there is no crystal ball, but if this is a progression of symptoms and I've progressed since June; shouldn't that correlate to severe or at least moderate disability in a further 6 months?
