Question:
If a person had their first and only M.S. Attack 2 years ago, What are the odds of having another M.S. Attack, if a person has only had one that landed them in the hospital for an M.S. Diagnosis ?
Answers:
If you were diagnosed in the hospital with MS then they had to see several plaques (evidence on Head Catscan). This means that you are more than likely to see another attack as you age. The fact that your other plaques did not show themselves through symptoms is just random chance. So if you are in fact diagnosed at a hospital by trained staff then you are as likely as any other MS patient to get another attack.

In case you have not heard though, recent studies have shown that statins (medicines that lower cholesterol) can greatly aid in your battle against MS. good luck

Other Answers:
With a diagnosis from the hospital of MS most health care workers will tell you it's a matter of when more than if in regards to having another MS attack. However, as he pointed out above they have been making new progress . get more information about the new things available. Good Luck.
