Interesting. I'll be cautiously optimistic. I can't help but wonder what the side effects of this med will be.

At this point I will side with Kitty on this, way to early to tell. As it is my view better the devil you know than the one you don`t, I also would be real interested in possible side effects.

No wanting to sound pessimistic, but can anyone name one successful treatment that worked on that poor MS mouse that eventually proved beneficial to MS patients?

Kicker, you dont want to be a mouse (for one, they're gross! EWWWWW!!!)

They GAVE that poor mouse MS. Torturing that nasty little piece of vermin (better him than us!) but after they do all their tests on those mice, they do little mouse autopsies to see what all their experiments to them. (they dont wait for the mouse to die a "natural" death either. They help them along in that regard)

Nope, I'd rather be the human benefiting from the mouse being experimented on. Hopefully we get to benefit from it.

Erin, TMI, TMI!!!! EEEEWWWW.

I once had a very psychotic student. He would start conversations with me "You of the species that lives in the boiler room". Always thought he meant mouse or rat. He called his psychologist (one of the nicest ladies ever) "the Evil One". Even the other students thought him "odd".
