You know you have MS when:
Everything's always new! I swear I could hear the same joke 500 times and roll on the floor laughing, tears running down my face, simply because I can't remember it from the last 499 times it was told.
Have you heard about the memory tests they've been trying on lab rats? They play a sound and shortly after give them a gentle shock. They come to expect the shock after they hear the sound, and tense up (higher heart rate, etc)..If they stimulate a certain part of the brain right after the sound, they forget what's coming..So instead of the sound being followed by stress & running to protect themselves, it's the sound followed by "Oooo, what's that sound *shock*", the sound again "Oooo, what's that sound *shock*"..and so on..
OK I forgot..Did that story have anything to do with what I started talking about?
Ooo, wait a minute, did you hear something? 
~~~~Zzzzzzt~~~~~ OUCH!
