No dear woman, you don't have to defend trying this. I think all of us just want you to be careful on the suppliments. I am taking them too like I said. but I am going with a board certified physiasist. She specialized in nutrition at a cellular level, and that is probably what this practioner you have met is trying to do. I sure do know how MS can be, as my cousin has it. We all have to try in our own ways to go forward with some hope. Sometimes, another person who takes us seriously and tries to help, can provide mental peace to where the body can heal, and or stabilize. It may not be main stream medicine, but hope is a gift in itself when we feel miserable. I wish you all the best dejibo, I care about you, and want you to be as happy and healthy as you can. None of us are having a good time with these medical conditions, thats for sure. Lets just hang out her on NT, and keep talking bringing us closer together as humans. We all need each other. ginnie
