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).
There are two phases for how an unknown underlying condition may cause damage in MS: First some MRI-abnormal areas with hidden damage appear in the brain and spine (NAWM, NAGM, DAWM). Second, there are leaks in the bloodâbrain barrier where immune cells infiltrate causing the known demyelination and axon destruction.
