@melmel1 , have a look at this "decision aid" :- https://www.mstrust.org.uk/about-ms/ms-treatments/ms-decisions-aid The latest thinking from proactive Neuros is to hit MS hard and fast with the most efficacious treatments. This would avoid the possibility of acquiring disability, whilst stepping up through the treatments.

@stumbler thank u that was very useful I really appreciate the advice I dont tink I would be offerd infusions as not had any DMD' s? but I wanted to know is Lemtrada the most powerful and if that failed does that mean the others would be useless? X
