I will preface this by saying... this is probably a really dumb question!!! But what the hay... I'll ask anyway! Since, everyone here is much wiser and more experienced than I am.

Is it possible for a person to be predisposed (maybe not the right word) to ms, and it just lies dormant until something happens to activate it. I'm just thinking... I had been stressing my body majorly since I was in my late teens, doing physical labor like hauling square hay bales, carrying 50 lb. feed sacks, picking up rocks and working in the garden till I felt like collapsing just to see the beautiful plants with absolutely NO WEEDS! Staying up half the night doing house chores....basically working too hard for the wrong reasons, year after year.

I GUESS I'M JUST WONDERING... DID I CAUSE MORE DAMAGE TO THE MS DUE TO MY LIFESTYLE????????

Like I said, this may be a really dumb question. So Please just ignore me if it doesn't make any sense.

Thank you!
