Guest guest Posted May 20, 2002 Report Share Posted May 20, 2002 Pam, In regards to survivors speaking with researchers... There are many things that I think are important when considering my father's dx of MSA. For example, he had a serious head injury about 25 years before he was dx. Also, as a child he worked on his family farm all summer, every summer. In an attempt to keep the chiggers away, my father (then a young boy) would cover himself in whatever pesticide they were using on the crops. He did this his entire childhood. Given the theory that environmental factors might cause MSA, I would think things like this might be significant to someone researching the disease. I have let the Drs. we worked with on the brain donation know this info. in OK --- Pam Bower pbower@...> wrote: > Hi Judy, I can relay that question to the > researchers.
