Thread Name: BS: MS
Subject: RE: BS: MS
Thanks, Mary but I'm not sure that I need any more information... I've been on Internet a lot since I got my diagnosis (last year, though we've figured out I've had MS for 20 years!), and have found too much about MS! All things I've saved and/or printed makes me stressed! Of course I've found a lot of interesting things too. One site I like was mentioned at the Annexe. But I know now that I'm not gonna get any ABC-drug as I've had MS for too long and I don't know if I should have taken it anyway! They're not good for the liver (and which drugs are?) and many people get other bad side effects. Depression is a common side effect from at least one of them… I'm not only impressed by science especially not since my sister died from the consequences of a bad liver after having used a lot of common drugs, scientifically "proven" to be good and safe... :-( And we've got good alternative (that is traditional, at least some of them) therapists here, it's just too expensive for me. I can go to one of them now and then but not as much as I need. I'd love to go to a certain osteopath a couple of times a month but it's not possible. Anyway he has helped me a lot when I've been there. I had no energy when I came to him the first time, but he helped me get it back! ;-)

But… I'm also very curious, so I guess I'll PM you! ;-)
