Secondary Progressive Ms

Secondary Progresive MS (SPMS). As the disease progresses, it causes damage and loss of nerves, which is the reason for the change in symptoms. This type of multiple sclerosis comes after Relapsing-remitting for most patients. During this stage, the condition progresses more steadily. Relapses can still occur, but not necessarily.

Secondary progressive ms symptoms occurs in around 65% of those with initial relapsing remitting MS, who eventually have progressive neurologic decline between acute attacks without any definite periods of remission. Occasional relapses and minor remissions may appear. The most common length of time between disease onset and conversion from relapsing remitting ms turn into progressive ms is 19 years.
