I wonder if anyone here can help me understand this. I am 20 years since diagnosis with rrms. Over the Christmas and early Jan period I suffered an horrendous relapse. It went on for around 5 weeks, and I often felt that I should have been in hospital to receive care as I could barely do a thing for myself. I had severe dizziness, was unable to stand unaided for more than a few minutes, I felt very wobbly on my legs, all of my muscles were hard to use and would ache after using them, I had trouble leaning forward to brush my teeth (need to support with my free hand), my cognitive function was terrible, my speech was bad and the fatigue was overwhelming. I took a course of steroids 4 weeks into this and started to feel better around 9 days later. I had an appointment yesterday with my neuro, but she says that this was not a relapse as the symptoms were global. When I asked her what she meant by global she said that all the symptoms were there all of a sudden, and that it hadn’t started gradually. My mri also shows no evidence of a relapse. I am so frustrated by this and not sure where to go. My last treatment was Lemtrada in 2016. I’m wondering if anyone here had experienced a relapse and been told it wasn’t as the symptoms are ‘global’?
