Benign MS

People with Benign MS have mild, infrequent, sensory exacerbations with a full recovery. After one or two attacks with complete recovery and without any disability, this form of MS does not worsen with time and there is no permanent disability or disease progression. However, some people with Benign MS will eventually experience disease progression; their course of disease will change and evolve into the Progressive stages of MS, within 10 - 15 years of its official onset.

Benign MS is one of the least common forms of the disease, with only 10% of patients diagnosed with this type of MS. 

Benign MS tends to display non-visible sensory symptoms at onset and does not display any motor symptoms (such as double vision, coordination difficulties or tremor).

Benign MS can only be positively identified after there is minimal disability 10 to 15 years following its official onset.
