NBC Nightly News - Medical Mysteries -- MS tonight
 

Tonight - if I read it correctly - NBC will do a report on Multiple Sclerosis.

They are doing a series called Medical mysteries that began this week and the focus is autoimmune disease.

They have already covered Lupus and Rheumatoid Arthritis.

Thought you might be interested in watching - I am planning to watch for this.

Thanks !
Snoods...

Is this on the nightly news or is it a show all on its own? I looked up the TV listings for tonight but didn't find anything on it. Thanks for the heads-up, though. I'll be on the lookout for it here. :)

I watch this news every night....and saw the other two topics. I was wondering if they would get to MS....thanks!!

It is a segment on the nightly news (not a show on it's own).
I have missed the other 2 segments - wish I had seen them but may be able to go and view a video.

Sine autoimmune illnesses tend to cluster - I am interested in what they may have to say.

I have "Definate" Hashimotos and "Probable" MS and I also recently tested low positive for Lupus so I need to follow back up on that one.

You can read it here, they haven't updated for today's schedule yet. tsk. tsk.

Ooh, I found this just in time...it is about to come on after this comercial...

Well, that was a little underwhelming.

They really concentrated on the men:women ratio, they seem to be leaning more than ever in the direction of the reproductive system as the key. So, how many of you guys have ovaries?

I've never been pregnant, so, why do I have to have this disease????:mad:

OK, from the time of my last post to the time of this post, the commercials were over, the segment aired, and it is now more commercials....

Aside from being short, the segment focused more on auto-immune than MS...it also focused more on things being a women's disease...and then, a doctor actually said that women have to deal with auto-immune disease because we can reproduce...

ummm, nope, sorry, not impressed with this....

Ditto; very unimpressive!!!!!!!

Yawn....I think I closed my eyes and missed it.
