Christina Applegate tells MS community she remains their warrior after misdiagnosis

Christina Applegate says she will continue advocating for people with multiple sclerosis, despite learning that her 2021 diagnosis was incorrect. On her MeSsy podcast, she called the MS community “my people” and said she remains their “warrior”; co-host Jamie-Lynn Sigler said the podcast will continue beyond its focus on MS. Applegate says her symptoms are severe and worsening, including pain, weakness and difficulty getting out of bed, and she is seeking answers from doctors. The revelation has highlighted the challenges of diagnosing MS, which has no single definitive test.
