Disease Perception impacts Quality of Life and Fatigue in Relapsing ‐remitting Multiple Sclerosis patients

ConclusionsOur study showed no association between disease duration and disease perception. Patients with less disease knowledge reported more problems in self-care and higher fatigue scores. Patients with worst disease expectations were more anxious and reported a worst health status. More attention should be driven to perceived health status in MS patients.
