This post is as a member of this forum, as a person with MS, and one who is currently on day two of STEROIDS...and not as a moderator...


Don't be so negative about Neuro's that are NOT MS specialist. There are a lot of very good neuro's who treat many of us who are NOT MS Specialists. That doesn't mean they don't know what they are doing. Sorry, but you just keep harping on that and it just isn't such a good thing. In fact, the neurologist that has been treating me for the past 7 years is not an MS Specialist, but is very well respected throughout the MS Community by her peers who are known as specialists.

Also, I spent 20 years being treated by military doctors and over all I had excellent care...I think I can honestly say I had only one bad experience with a military doctor and that was when we were stationed in the Philippines...she was NOT a good doctor to begin with and I am not even sure how she passed her boards. There are also other military people here who may not speak up, but I do...I am very pro-military and am currently under the TriCare system and have not had any problems.

You are entitled to your opinion just like the rest of us...but please be cognizant of how it reflects on the community as a whole.

Thanks for allowing me to express my opinion...
