What’s a relapse?

Hi first time on here! Been diagnosed since may 2015. Advised there had been at least 5 previous ‘episodes’ according to mri scan but never knew! Luckily nothing since but struggling to know what is a relapse and what’s just progression! Get numbness and fatigue now and again but been getting burning sensations quite a lot. Currently feel like my face and arms are on fire. How do you know? Any thoughts most grateful!

Hi @lauragran and welcome. Your journey to diagnosis isn't that unfamiliar, I'm afraid. :???: Being diagnosed with MS is the start of a learning curve for you. So let us know if and how we can help. And, to get you started, here's a good definition of a relapse:- https://www.mssociety.org.uk/what-is-ms/types-of-ms/relapsing-remitting-rrms

Hi thanks for this. Woke up this morning with burning session away so feeling ever so slightly foolish! Panic over! Thanks for the link. Will have a proper read through tonight.
