fieldplanner High time! The VA system is indispensable for continued care (and appreciation) for all those who have served. The incidence among veterans has been rising, which drives a need for more research, better understanding/treatment, and increased funding.

That’s really great news. Hopefully a cause and cure will be found soon.

Fieldplanner: This is good news. I am working to get some help from the VA. On my appointment with my neurologist in May, I need to get a letter saying my time in certain areas may have contributed to my getting MS.
