Prognosis for Relapsing/remitting multiple sclerosis

Prognosis for Relapsing/remitting multiple sclerosis: Patients often assume that the remission stage of the disease will mean 100% recovery. While this can be true, particularly during the early stages of the disease, often the remission will only be a partial one, particularly as the disease progresses, thus leaving the patient with residual, usually permanent, symptoms.
