Mobility Challenges in Progressive MS

People with MS often experience mobility challenges and limitations, including difficulty walking, abnormal gait, loss of balance, fatigue and weakness. Fortunately, there are treatments and assistive devices available to help improve mobility. Current research around the world is investigating the ways we can more accurately measure and address mobility challenges to rehabilitate in a timely manner.
In this webcast, you’ll hear from a panel of three researchers who are dedicated to finding ways to diagnose people’s individual challenges more quickly and accurately to intervene with solutions to help improve mobility - and ultimately, quality of life for people living with MS.
The International Progressive MS Alliance is a first-of-its-kind global research network aimed at accelerating the development of new, effective treatments for progressive MS. We are rallying the world through an unprecedented collaboration of MS organizations, researchers, healthcare professionals, pharmaceutical companies, trusts, foundations, donors and people affected by MS. Our promise is more than hope; it is progress.

I have MS diagnosed last year

Sorry to hear that. Just remember "I'm OK you're OK everything will be OK😉 " I was diagnosed some fourteen years ago, at the age of 53, and my wife was diagnosed some ten years before that. When I received the news I was unsure of what to do and a little scared - I'm not embarrassed to say. It took about a year to settle on a treatment that agreed with my system.
My best advice is to de-stress as much as you can and keep moving forward - both mentally and physically. Don't feel bad if you need to take an extra "Me Day." Hopefully you have a good doctor that is in your corner. For me every morning is different so having a good support group and a positive outlook is essential to get the end of a ruff evening.
Good Luck, and let this be your mantra "I'm OK you're OK everything will be OK😉 "
