Thank you for your reply.  I am dx with MS.  I was just curious as I've only had my dx for 1 year as of today.

sorry, but my tired brain can't recall if you are diagnosed or still looking for answers.

It is reasonable if you have MS to be looked at once a year.   The mri pics can tell you if your dmd is working or if you need to reevaluate your course of treatment.  

If you are not dx'd, it would be reasonable to have MRI's if your symptoms change or at least once a year to look for lesions.

be well,
Lulu
