Cool
Your right Lady - Diet Mt Dew has more caffeine then any soda in the US, so I know I don't have MS. If by chance I for got to drink my daily dose one day years ago and got MS, I know I will soon be cured by my Soda. No worries here!

So how much caffeine does one have to have in order NOT to get MS? I come from a true-blue Scandanavian family who had me drinking coffee and eating home-made donuts since I was 3, and I'm the only one to get it?? Some days it would pay to be a mouse..

Some of these posts are so funny!

I drink a least 3 cups every morning and love Dr. Pepper and Cokes. Now that we are pretty sure that caffeine doesn't prevent MS maybe we should try chocolate.

I haven't heard anything about caffeine or anything new since the bee sting theory years ago.

I do have something that will really sound bizaar but did anyone ever see the report about the woman with MS that was hit by lightning in her home in 1994 and it helped her walk? I worked with her husband for 6 years. True story!

Google MS and lightning...her name is Mary Clamser from OKC. I need to find out how she is doing. The story got lost in the local news when the Oklahoma City bombing happened.

Wow Becky..I'm glad it worked, but getting hit by lightning is a bit more than I'm willing to try. I'd feel like Frankenstein's monster (remember the scene where he gets zapped by all the electricity from the lightning, and Dr Frankenstein screams "It's Alive!"? I'd kinda feel like that ) Let us know if you find out how she's doing now. That would be great if she's still walking!

Well, I don't know about the rest of you, but I'm going to go stand out in the middle of a lightening storm with my large cup of caffeine.

Just in case..
