Is it a crock? Who knows. This disease is different for all of us and who's to say that for some MS may burn it's self out but not for others.

I have heard that statement made by more than one doctor but I have never heard how we would know if MS burns it's self out. Even if your MS burns it's self out I would really doubt the damage that you may already have will improve.

I do find the thought of this disease being able to burn it's self out quite interesting - so many unanswered questions
