Evening all!

Incase some of you might not see my post on EL, today I saw my neuro and asked for genetic testing. It was back in 2011 that my diagnosis of.PPMS was changed to HSP.

There is no exact test for HSP, but once the neuro decided i didn’t have PPMS , it seems all that was left after everything else was eliminated , was HSP.

Like with MS, there is no cure, so it just has to be lived with!

But you know, a tiny part of me still wonders if I do have PPMS in a different form!
