A member asked:
What would the life expectancy for someone with ms be?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Unsually normal: It was previously thought that ms could shorten lifespan by about 8 yrs, but a study looking at interferon treatment suggests that lifespan can be normal if ms patients are treated with dmt's over a period of time.
