Hey Mark - good to hear you're getting your head round this monster, it'll take a while I reckon. Dana's right, dropping in to the MS forum's a good plan whenever you feel you can handle it; like here, I'm sure that advice from people who really know what it's like, what to expect and how to deal with all the issues is absolutely invaluable.

Interesting, I only really drink socially, and I'm not very sociable - and I used to. Only really been like this since RSD. I've discovered that while I'm actually drinking, the RSD is very much better. But for 2 days after, it's very much worse. Plus, I just don't feel like it any more.

But hey, I'll certainly have a virtual glass or five So...I think running naked beats you in a grass skirt and coconut bra...does it??

So pleased to hear you a bit more chipper, take it easy,
all the best.

PS GnP - what a socialite you are! Insider gossip hot from LA - I love it!!
