Seems like there would be something about that on the NMSS website. I wonder where he's getting his info.
I'm glad that they're attempting to make people aware of MS and it's sx but sometimes they just scare the daylights out of folks with nothing to reference for confirmation. I can't believe I've been dx for 4 years and never heard that before.
