RRMS with a high EDSS?
Posted: Sat Jan 23, 2010 11:36 am
I'm a little confused.
I see plenty of ppl on here with EDSS's above 6.0 yet they are classified as RRMS.
Technically (and I understand RRMS do slowly progress) shouldn't a RRMS person have a low EDSS? even zero?
I believe some doctors and nueros somehow think that the progressive forms of MS have absolutely no way of being helped by Zamboni's procedure, yet the way I see it, aren't we all progressive? even those labeled RRMS?
What's the fine line of distinction?
I see at least a dozen ppl in the CCSVI tracking sticky labeled as progressive who were given the procedure and some improved as a result. (I also saw many RRMS with EDSS's of 5 or more!)
I don't want ppl being disregarded or skipped because they're "labeled" progressive when I think everyone really is. Does this make sense?
