i suggest you buy this book or a book geared towards the newly diagnosed.

the odds of developing a "cure" or slowing down progression are much better now than when i was diagnosed 12 years ago. cheer up.

exercise, stay informed, join clinical trials if possible - some will pay for you to travel - and even though your're recently diagnosed check out support groups, you might meet people who are doing very interesting things. i'm informed enough that my neuro discusses my treatment options with me.

what keeps me going now is family and friends and a chance of a "cure". i didn't really start to feel major symptoms until year 6.
