A 43-year-old woman is being reviewed in a neurology clinic. She was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis 15 years ago and, for two months, started on a new drug following the progression of previous treatments. Her partner accompanies her, and together they express concerns about what appears to be an alarming deterioration in her condition. The patient is becoming increasingly forgetful and confused in everyday situations and experiencing significant weakness in her left leg. She seems to be getting worse by the day.
