What would yours be for someone newly diagnosed?
If I knew what I know now, from the start I wish I had been able to: 1. Get plenty of quiet rest in a darkened environment - use ear plugs and sunglasses. 2. Avoid stress 3. Avoid over activity or exercise 4. Avoid over stimulation - limit TV, computers, radio. 5. If needed get medication for headaches, migraines, insomnia, anxiety or depression.
