Is this true or not?

I was told earlier that RRMS that's the final stage and that's what I have so I think I'll be all right living with RRMS

Hey everyone, I’m Bigg Kenn. I was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis a couple weeks ago after going to the doctor for vision loss in my right eye caused by optic neuritis. It’s been a scary and emotional adjustment, and after about 2 weeks my vision has only slightly improved. I’m still learning about MS and what this journey looks like for me, so I joined this app looking for support, advice, and connection with people who understand what this feels like. 🙏🏾

💯I like this platform, it's nice to finally be in a room with other people who aren't so different from me, we all have MS and we all know how awkward social interactions are with others w/o MS . 🤦

Anyone have issues with falling? I don’t feel like my balance is off but I fell 3 times this week. Once just walking on my sidewalk, really scraped up my knees and twice down a few stairs. Is this just a part of MS? Do you normally feel off balance or does it just happen? What can you do to help it?

I understand that itchy skin can be a symptom, but…. My HANDS itch. Sometimes it’s the palm, sometimes it’s the side of one finger. Anyone get this? And what helps?
