Prior Suggestive Symptoms in One-Third of Patients Consulting for a "First" Demyelinating Event
JNNP 82:323-325, Gout,O.,et al, 2011
See this aricle in Pubmed

Article Abstract
A patient-administered questionnaire subsequently validated by the neurologist demonstrated that 33% of patients consulting for a first Demyelinating event had prior symptoms suggestive of central nervous system demyelination that had gone unnoticed, and almost 70% had either sequelae of prior demyelination or McDonald criteria for dissemination in space. Such a questionnaire could be a useful tool for earlier diagnosis of multiple sclerosis.
