i could not agree with you more. i often wonder if the importance of mri's are over stressed because it's the best tool they have at this point in time?

(i reached this conclusion after a butt load of mri's this last year....10 to 11 in 12 months to be precise)

everyone who has had ms for awhile knows lesion load does not correspond with disability status amongst other things.

Arrrrr Arrrrr Arrrr Sally - how true!

It was my MS neuro who told me to find a good forum. Best thing I could have done for my care, mental health and education. We may be crazy but we aren't stupid!

Teddy:

I can't count the number of times I have hauled myself out of a hot bath only to lie down on the bathroom floor because I couldn't make it out of the bathroom. I won't give up my bath because I hate showers (tactile thing), so I have one just before bedtime. In an odd way it's a very pleasant feeling, I fall asleep faster.
