Donna, I was diagnosed with RRMS, but my primary physician and I both think he is quite wrong, as we both feel it is either primary or secondary progressive.  I never have a day with old symptoms and new ones pop up frequently.  As I also have severe Fibromyalgia and Arthritis, I am on opiate pain medication but I don't take any of the MS drugs anymore.  Could not afford them.  They did not help anyway, my lesions continued to increase.  Aside from the pain meds and stuff, I take Vitamin D, get in the sun as often as I can without overheating, tanning helps a lot, I color (yes color) to relax and that helps the pain, and my husband gives me Reiki treatments every day.  I take Melatonin to help me sleep.  I do know that when just as you think you have the MS figured out, the MS rears  its ugly head with something new.  Keep researching and asking questions, educating yourself is the best thing you can do.  And one of the guys that answered is right: a good attitude goes a long way.  I figure that I have MS for a reason, and I have learned many things sinced being diagnosed.  I have also tried to help people locally (very rural area) who have MS too.  I know I learn life's lessons with it and so do the children and grandchildren.  So I know I am fulfilling a purpose.  Just wish it wasn't so painful! lol  Hang in there!   Blessings, 2tired
