@gareth1987 , welcome to the cheap seats in the MS World. Yes, I was informed back in 2010 that I'm now Secondary Progressive (SPMS). Has it made much of a difference? Well I was able to stop sticking needles in myself! Also, I'm not supposed to have relapses anymore, just a gradual progression. But, I do see it as one of the cheap variants of MS. It allows the medical professionals to look after their budgets, as there's no treatment for us. Having said that, there is no doubt that there is a postcode lottery out there. A total lack of consistency. What I would say, is just look after yourself. A decent diet, a bit of exercise and just "go with the flow". SPMS is like any form of MS, which is a pain in the butt. We just have to put on a brave face and live life the best we can.
