There are a bunch of Peeps here who have had Cancer scares, while having MS. How does MS protect you from Cancer and who paid for this silly study, anyway?

I saw the headline and thought, "oh wow, cool"....but after reading the article, not so much! if anything, the article scared me more than anything! Higher risk of brain cancer....lovely....can't we just give our brains a break already? And higher for breast cancer. Lovely. Every female on my mom's side of the family has had breast cancer....it's now up to my generation. So I sit....and wait....impatiently (as I hate waiting. ha ha).

Just something else to make us worry......as if we don't have enough.

Use whatever money is used on these ridiculous studies to find a cure (or at least a non-injectable drug) for MS.

That's what scared me too....the increased risk of brain cancer due to brain inflammation.
