Hi Sally,

Our experiences have been different in the area of stress

In my case Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) is were my experience with stress lies. The extreme "stress and anxiety" that PTSD can cause did not affect my MS. Although my Drs., as well as my Psychotherapist, were concerned with the affects of PTSD on my MS those concerns never came to fruition. My MS stayed quiet during the 10 years that PTSD had ahold of me and my life, to which I am quite grateful for.

My MS seems to be more noticeable during those times in my life where there is little to no stress or anxiety in my life, go figure
