I love this website!

My uncle has secondary-progressive MS. He was being treated with chemotherapy with Mitazantrone, but had to stop the treatments because they were damaging his heart. I joined the website to help him stay informed about new treatments for SPMS.

Welcome to the site Bovellido and your uncle is lucky to have your interest in his welfare to his advantage.

There are a lot of people in the same boat that your uncle is in. Obviously having MS is not a good thing and having SPMS/PPMS seems much more hopeless than RRMS. I think with research you will find that the situation isn't as hopeless for SPMS/PPMS as it it might seem at first glance.
