You were wondering where I read 'it didn't matter what parent had MS in terms of passing it along'...

http://www.webmd.com/multiple-sclero...wnl_mls_070907

June 28, 2007 -- Men and women with multiple sclerosis (MS) share an equal risk of passing the disease onto their children, according to a new study.

The results contradict a study published last year that suggested men with multiple sclerosis were more likely to pass MS to their children than women.

Too, I just got this back from the NMSS main web page when I asked them:

Pam Dixon has sent you a page from the National MS Society website!

Message: I hope you find this helpful in answering your question about children and MS. Although this discusses the genetic link, there is no supporting evidence to indicate that it is linked specifically to one parent over another. Please feel free to contact me if you have any futher questions. Pam 412-261-6347
