500 Posts 2, I thought that was more obvious. I guess I made a mistake. See I really do make them. So far I have written over 500 posts on this site, an achievement that truly amazes me.

That is why “YOU must always get a second opinion and do your own personal research. In my opinion this is not a rocket science disease. “YOU” get ms “BECAUSE"', “YOU” are human and humans get it. It is incurable, “YOU” my sibling will die with this, not because of it. It is progressive, “YOU” will get worse, how much worse “YOU” get depends upon your choices. Take the Disease Modifying Therapy )DMT) religiously and “YOU might get sicker slower and that is a good thing. Remember these medicines are very powerful. There are side effects. Be aware of them but do not be horribly afraid of them. they wear off eventually. Eat healthily, there is no ms diet. Go look up the meaning of the word diet. It is not a summer lose five kIlos (10 lbs)type of thing. Nor is it a Japanese government. I have looked and there is no ms diet. Exercise, stretch lift heavy weights and keep doing it. That is a good thing.

Do not behave like this is a two aspirin and a liedown type of disease. This is serious and really does require “YOU” to change your mindset and develop one of determination and resilience. Not good things happen with this disease. Some self inflicted, mowing the backyard in the heat,,some just lack of experience or pushing yourself too hard. It takes time and observation to get a firm handle on the weirdness that is Relapsing Remitting ms (RRms) and if “YOU” are anything like me “YOU” will make mistakes, and continue making them. Hopefully not the same ones too many times.

Now onto my favorite topic protective underwear. Depends are your friend. Bladder and bowel misfortunes are not, protect yourself against them when leaving your home. Eventually “YOU” will learn where everr toilet (bathroom) is where ever “YOU” go, but protect yourself.

Well the rule is one page only and I believe I am at the end of the page, I really dislike those letters that people writ that go on for page after page. It is just too much to read, at least for me.

more later maybe it is still early in the day

Royce,

This one of the best things I have read on here. This is how doctors should explain it to the newly diagnosed.

I have had stage 3 Throat and Thyroid cancer. I knew I had issues and the ENT just straight up told me the facts. He didn't try to flower things up. So many MD's don't tell you the true facts but will try to make you feel more comfortable with your ultimate diagnosis. I prefer the straight up approach.

I most certainly do asa well. Give me the facts and let me sort out how I feel later, on my own time.

I've learned pretty much to use most every bathroom I see whether I feel like I have to go or not. I surprise myself often - in a good way.
