New to the forum...

I'd like to hear what other people are reading. Let's hear about MS type stuff. I'll start another thread for general reading.

Hi Cmartin415. Welcome to NT.

I'm not reading anything related in the least to MS at the moment.

Glad you're here. How's things going w you and your MS?

Welcome to the forum cmartin. We have a book forum @ http://neurotalk.psychcentral.com/forum108.html

I'm on a mystery/thriller type book kick right now. MS may be a mystery, but not to me..

I think there are others here who have a list of good MS books/stories..

I get audio books for free from my local library. they have a web site, and when the latest stuff comes out, I put a hold on it, and wait my turn in line. I get them all for free! So, I have heard really good stories for no cost.

right now I am listening to the Dry Grass of August. about growing up in the 50s and segregation in the south. Cute little story. Then is the "matched" series. Where sometime in the future we are all matched with genetic mates for promotion of a healthy species and its really interesting. ally Condie wrote the series.

Haven't read books about MS for quite some time...not much more to learn I guess...until the big CURE comes along...

MS for dummies was ok. it explained alot in the early days. Then there are all those books about women/men who are dx and want to share with us how they spun their dysfunctional lives into marathon runners by drinking special juice or exercising their demons.

I liked Terry Gars book. cant remember the name. it was upbeat and not full of poor pitiful me stuff.

When I was 1st diagnosed I read a few books on MS, including Teri Garr's book. After about a year, I read Dr. Swank's book. Since then, I haven't read any more books on MS. I have read plenty of articles online about MS and research as well as a couple of magazines I get - Momentum and Neurology Now.
