Hi mike.
Firstly ,for about 7yrs before diagnosis I was 99.99%sure it was ms because I had 4 episodes 6months apart of bedridden fatigue during the first 2yrs.....after each episode of fatigue my symptoms excelerated.
Since then I don't get fatigue that bad anymore...just your minor everyday type.
I do find that I follow a 12-24 month pattern of stability/plateau in progression then I get a severe spurt for several months.
Daily or weekly good/bad days depends on many things....stress,general health ect ect.
But as you put it I do know that I do have a plateau/progression thing going on like in ms.
Ms effects white and grey matter were as pls effects just grey matter.......theres bound to be some similarities.
However just as in other illnesses we can progress differently to each other.
Does that answer your questions?
