I got diagnosed a month ago after a 2 year long struggle of not knowing what was wrong, now I have that diagnosis I feel like an imposter, like I’m not “unwell” enough to say I have MS.

I’m feeling down as my legs are heavier and I just now want to sit and do nothing as my legs are heavy and I get the MS hug at the first sign of tiredness. Also, I’ve been told I’ve now got secondary progressive MS and am going through tests to see if I can take Mayzent ( simonipod). Any one else ta...

My neurologist insists that MS does not cause pain.

I don't even know what to say to that!
