Hi,

that is very interesting...

In 2008 and 2009 I posted the experiences my sister made: it was always hay fever OR MS flare, e.g. when she had a flare during the hay fever season, her hay fever disappeared and vice versa ( http://www.thisisms.com/ftopic-6731-0-d ... rasc-.html and http://www.thisisms.com/ftopic-5800-0-d ... rasc-.html).

Best regards,
Sandra

I agree too. In years gone by my hay fever was off the scale, once MS kicked in it has never bothered me again (the hay fever that is). I would much prefer hay fever over MS. :?
