I feel that my fibro dx in '85 was actually early MS...esp since my knee doc warned me about fibro going into MS way back a decade ago...
My DD26 is so afraid of contracting MS...she lives in Wisconsin too, which has high levels in the population.
I told her, since she hates milk, to take D3 as well.

My family had diabetes T2), heart conditions, thyroid conditions, arthritis, psoriasis and my sis and mom both had rheumatic fever. I think it's a genetic thing too. I read a report that researchers think a retrogene that hasn't been used since caveman days gets reactivated by a virus and triggers MS.
Another research study recently stated that 80% of MS patients are allergic to milk, and that milk has similar molecules to meyelin, which the anti-milk antibodies then decide to attack the meyelin.

So many ideas, no real answers
