I am newly diagnosed with MS, what happens next for me?

Every week around 130 people are diagnosed with MS. Finding information you can trust is important, particularly when you're newly diagnosed, as learning about MS can help you take control and feel more secure in a time of uncertainty. In this episode, we chat with Corinne from our helpline about what questions they hear from people who have recently been diagnosed and the types of responses they give to them.

We also talk to Team GB athlete Lina Nielsen, who was diagnosed as a teenager about her MS diagnosis and her approaches to handling the condition.
