Understanding and managing autonomic dysfunction in persons with multiple sclerosis
https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/abs/10. ... 21.1994856
Expert opinion
AD in pwMS can manifest with a myriad of symptoms including cardiovascular, urogenital, and sweating disorders. These symptoms can significantly impact the quality of life of pwMS with poor tolerance of upright position, difficulties in sexual function, and low endurance of physical activity especially in warm environments. Health professionals involved in care of pwMS should possess basic knowledge of the function of the autonomic nervous system and be informed of the way disorders of the autonomic function may manifest in pwMS in order to provide the proper care.
unrecorded by any health pro in any systematic fashion of which i'm aware (never had any exertion-related testing for example), gradually diminishing endurance of physical activity has been my issue for over a decade (2007-2018) of zero relapses... jus sayin!

Re: Autonomic Dysfunction in PwMS
I'm reminded of this article posted earlier this year:
Smouldering multiple sclerosis: the ‘real MS’
https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/full/1 ... 4211066751
" ...progressive accumulation of disability in MS can occur independently of relapse activity from early in the disease course. This scenario is underpinned by a more diffuse smouldering pathological process that may affect the entire CNS. Many putative pathological drivers of smouldering MS can be potentially modified by specific therapeutic strategies, an approach that may have major implications for the management of MS patients. We hypothesise that therapeutically targeting a state of ‘no evident inflammatory disease activity’ (NEIDA) cannot sufficiently prevent disability accumulation in MS, meaning that treatment should also focus on other brain and spinal cord pathological processes contributing to the slow loss of neurological function. This should also be complemented with a holistic approach to the management of other systemic disease processes that have been shown to worsen MS outcomes."
@zyklon NEDA made me think of you - any thoughts?
