Pffft, Jim was dx'd at age 22 and his poop went down the drain fast! So, age has nothing to do with it in my opinion. As a matter of fact, has that lady considered aging may have something to do with some symptoms and it's not always ms?

The feeling better doesn't bother me. My symptoms are so up and down, I do have good days and bad. I always cross my fingers for a good day. The get well part - I try not to say "I will, when they find a cure and a way to repair the damage." Though if the tone of the person was not nice, I'd say it anyways.

It doesn't bother me when people say they hope I am feeling better or that I look good. I would have probably said the same thing prior to my dx and learning about MS. Occasionally I do say well "it is better to look good than feel good"

I say "thank you." I truly don't have enough energy to think of a negative or sarcastic comeback.
