My mother has had ms for 10 years now and she can still live normally. is it possible that she'll live normally for the rest of her life?

Rate of progression: M.S. has been described as occurring at stages or levels according to a scale referred to as EDSS. It ranges from 1 (no disability) to 10 (death). Rough population studies have suggested that the time it takes to change from one level to the next is anywhere from 3-5 years. Therefore, I would think that if your mom is relatively GOOD and ambulatory NOW that she will be fine for quite some time.

Possible, BUT: The course of MS is often unpredictable, and some pts seem to have a rather benign course. But odds are greatly enhanced for future stability if a potent disease modifying drug is being used, and vitamin D-3 supplements are added. Talk to a neurologist.
