A 27 y.o XX is examined by a neurologist for decreased vision in her left eye. Clinical history reveals an episode of weakness several months earlier, which she attributes to job stress and fatigue. The neurologic examination reveals mild residual weakness inher right lower extremity. A spinal fluid tap reveals increased IgG levels with prominent oligoclonal bands in the CSF. A brain MRI scan reveals small, scattered, 0.5 cm areas consistent with demyelination, mostly located in periventricular white matter. What should the neurologist tell the patient?
a) No further neurologic problems will be experienced
b) Relapses and remissions will occur over many years
c) This disease can be passed on to children
d) Further debilitation and death will occur within five years
