No, not THAT "word"! lol. I have such a bitterness with it. I suppose it might be because after 13 years with a "relatively easy" ride with MS (was in denial and able to blame all my sx's on something else).
Well late 2005 I went looking for a Neuro since I did not have one. One said "No MS"

, another "Post Viral Infection"

, and the next said "Benign-no need for treatment" Ok, sorry for all the

's, but not 5 months later did I have a relapse that has completely turned my life around

I have 2 small children I can barely take care of, in pain all day every day, etc...
Anyway, just hate the word! IMHO, NOONE can know if your case will be mild or not, hence the fact that MS is unpredictable...
