Thanks Irene! I only know of one person who had MS...a friends father and he

died of it. Not exactly an encouring example =( My party days are over and

have been for a long time. I'm lucky if I can stay awake long enough to see the

news *lol* I rarely drink, never smoked, etc... I will do what the doctor

tells me. I won't know anything though until Dec. 27th.

Re: Neuro developments

<< I have just found out I have to have 4 MRI's because my neuro thinks I

might have MS...now that scares me to death and of course I've looked it up

on the Internet which has only freaked me out even more. >>

My sister and a couple of close friends have MS. My sister for at least40

years and is still hanging in there. She does what the doctor tells her and

she is taking those new shots which are working wonders on people with MS.

One of the others I see a lot of as we live in the same city. She also takes

the shots but she does not follow her doctors instructions. She drinks to

much, smokes to much and does not take the rest that she is supposed to be

getting. Stays of late partying and all ready had some complications.

The other friend lives a bit far away but does pretty well. She does smoke

and once in a while parties to late but is doing great.

What I am trying to say is that you have to do what is necessary for your

health with MS. Do as your doctor tells you to if you have MS. Some of the

things that I listed above are not necessary and I am not saying that you

drink, smoke and all the rest because I do not know. They are just examples

of the sort of thing that you need to do and not to do.

My sister has been in remisson for 30 years until just lately. They put her

on the shots and she is doing fine. You can do and live well with MS. My

sister is ample proof of that.

Take care,

Irene
