A diagnosis of #MultipleSclerosis can leave people to live a life full of uncertainty about their condition and future 🤔 It’s common for the conversation around the progression of MS to go untalked about, in clinic and around family and friends 😕

It’s the elephant in the room 🐘 it’s the thing that nobody wants to talk about. It often leaves MSers feeling alone and afraid.

“I know it’s different for everyone, but I wonder how quickly peoples’ MS has progressed from invisible at diagnosis to obvious mobility problems…?” – Shift.ms member.
