I'm sorry you are diagnosed with MS. On the other hand I'm glad for you as now you have a confirmed answer. You're in the right place for support.

BTW, there has never been any clinical linkage of MS to having 7 children. Although I don't want to take any chances so I stopped with 2.

LOL, Dr.'s have a hard time believing that anything could be wrong with me because the "stress" of having 7 children MUST be causing all my SX, Hmmm, what if I don't even tell the next Dr I have kids at all.

I prayed really hard this week that the subject of my children did not come up. What actually happened was these two MS doctors, a man and a woman, both rolled their eyes when I told them what the other neurologist had said. I was much more comfortable after that!

It is just a bias and the problem is you do not know what doctor will have an the bias and which one won't.

Thumbs up

Hello,
OK, I love your sense of humor!!! I am sure there are other things I could honestly blame on my 7 children but I think you are correct, MS is probably not one of them!!

Now the grey hair,,,,that is a different story!
