Hi all, I’m a limbo lander had first attack just over a year ago but not confirmed ms but been told if it develops into something that it would be ms. My first attack happened after or during not being well with a horrible cold/virus etc. I now feel like I’m coming down with something and I’m getting worried obviously. The neuro said to me that a virus is fine, just take paracetamol but an infection could bring it back. I’m so worries this is gonna cause another attack.
Hi, I used to have the same fear when I first got dx. Have had ms for 10ish years now, had dozens of bouts of cold, flu, laryngitis, UTIs, etc, but only ever 4 ms attacks worth noting… I know it is hard, but try not to work yourself up every time you start to feel under the weather. An illness can make some old symptoms mildly return for a bit, but a full blown new attack is not a definite outcome by any means. Hope you feel better soon J
