This Is MS Multiple Sclerosis Knowledge & Support Community

Why are you in hospital? Wouldn't you feel happier at home with support?
You can write to me whenever..............Do you have a laptop?

If you are in U.S. I suggest you go to Boston. There is the best diagnostic/research clinic for M.S.
It is the most frustrating, elusive illness. You're right about family doctors symbolically waving garlic so that it will go away.

This websight is sooooo difficult to get around.Is it me?

Have been given Provigil. Does anyone have any info before I begin? Hi Pip, and welcome. As another MS patient who received a surprise, "instant" MS diagnosis in the absolute prime of life (post age 50, of course), :smile: I wish I had time right now to ask more details about how you rece...

Shalom to you all. I am newly diagnosed with M.S. and there are sooooooooooo many unanswered questions that I have. I feel that the doctors themselves don't have answers.
