@Hi everyone, I’m new here so I’ll just tell you a bit about myself. I was struck down with secondary progressive ms in 2016 with no warning a numb big toe on Sunday and paralysis to my left side by the Thursday! Do any of you guys have a sibling or family member who has ms ? I’ve been told it isn’t hereditary, but my sister had it before me and very sadly she passed away in February 2021, to advanced ms and Covid pneumonitis 😢 on Shift.ms

@ClaireVS

Noone in my family has MS. I think you probably inherit a tendency to develop MS & then something in the environment makes it active - like an infection etc. Just my personal opinion.
