Oops, Carol, I think we cross-posted.

RE: Flu shots. It's not an easy question. The information has been contradictory for flu shots for people with MS. Do you want to stimulate an already overactive immune system or do you not want to take the chance of getting the flu. Then what are your chances of getting it? Are you in a high risk category for exposure? Not an easy answer. Certainly one I'm not qualified to answer. But my doctor and I are always looking at the questions. And the answers change every year.

Also, can my Betaseron go through X-rays at the airport? Nobody really has the definitive answer. Also, what is the best calcium supplement? I've asked numerous people. Only did an orthopedic surgeon remember from chemistry class the only calcium carbonate can be absorbed. Also, can I donate my organs? Nobody really knows... Also, who regulates the over the counter supplements...they really are drugs? Too many questions for me to have pat answers.
