First call with MS nurse - what to ask?

Hello you lovely lot. I was diagnosed with RRMS on July 24 over the phone and have my first phone appointment with my MS nurse next week.

Ppms question

I would like to ask can doctor(s) be sure in the beginning that I have PPMS 100 %? I was taken basic magnetic photos and likvor sample. I had lots of inflammations (lesions) in spine and brain for years according to doctor. By those I was given PPMS sentence. Can it really be true?

This has lasted 2-3 weeks already and seems to be gradually getting worse. Does anyone have any ideas on what I could be doing to im...
