Re: MONOetc-Gerald, Stress etc......

ahhhhh yes Gerald, Glandular Fever I know about - we in Australia

call it that too.

Never had it though.

At the time just before first MS symptoms appeared, and the stupid

freak diet I was doing, I had severe panic attacks/anxiety and even

hallucinated and became paranoid.

What was I eating all day during this diet for 4 long months? Ready

for the shock?

1 slice of wholmeal toast - dry, no spreads in the morning

1 cup of black coffee no sugar.

THAT WAS IT!! For 3 months. Not a diet - a total elimination of all

vital foods for functioning. - 3 months later, optic neuritis and

pins and needles sensation and coordination problems in left leg. I

never recovered and went downhill since then (PPMS)

about many incidences of MS occuring within about 12 months of an

episode of emotional stress.
