Hi @lisa_henderson and welcome. There's definitely some who would say that you're lucky NOT to have tried any meds, so there are differing views. And, yes, there are members like you. You can get an idea of who they are by using the Forum Search function (magnifying glass, top left) and selecting the "Search members" tag. Unfortunately, the results will only contain details of members, who have completed their profile and shared that information. But, trust me, you are never alone. 😉

Hi @lisa_henderson I too have Progressive MS, diagnosed in late 2017. I was prescribed Gabapentin and Baclofen pretty much straight away to help combat some of the symptoms. I am not suited to take the DMD's as I take Insulin for Type 1 Diabetes, Insulin and the Steroids don't go well together apparently.
