The result is a compelling and highly nuanced account of what bodily consciousness is, how it is possible, and how it can contribute to individual and communal flourishing.. -Mark Johnson, Knight Professor of Liberal Arts and Sciences, Department of Philosophy, University of Oregon.
The Three Stages of MS. By Ashton Embry. Many people think MS has two stages: relapsing remitting (R-R MS) and secondary progressive. (SPMS). I see the MS disease process as having three distinct stages. The often ignored and perhaps. most critical stage of MS, is the first one which can be called Pre-clinical MS (PCMS).
That implies that when you develop MS, you will go through several stages of the disease until you reach the end. So I really don't like this term, but it is a term that is sometimes used to describe MS, so let's go with it. The stages of MS are very closely related to the four types of multiple sclerosis. They are Relapsing-remitting(RRMS), Secondary-Progressive (SPMS), Primary-Progressive (PPMS), and Progressive-Relapsing multiple sclerosis (PRMS). These are the main types in order of increasing disability.
