Guest guest Posted November 19, 2002 Report Share Posted November 19, 2002 Hi everyone, I have been reading just about all of the posts just about every day since joining the group. I have not been posting though because I have really been concentrating on the reading. I have learned heaps about what to expect of this disease already, and I know there is much more to learn. My husband Reg was given a definate diagnosis of MSA in September, three years after being diagnosed with PD. We are still really trying to come to terms with it. I have only been a member of the group for a week or so, and have already been reading about things which affect Reg, and which we did not realise was part of the disease, such as his cold feet! They get as cold as ice, as do his knees,but not his hands. I have to say though, that compared to the suffering that many members of this group are experiencing, Reg is as yet, only mildly affected. I do know this will change as time goes by, but I feel a little more confident being a part of this group, with all of these courageous people, sufferers and carers alike. Robyn.
