This disease can affect people differently. One of my sisters went blind, another has lesions that are causing a lot of numbness and weakness in her legs. My other sister passed away in 2004 but not because of the MS. In my case I refuse to let the MS bring me down. I truly believe that our mind can play a large role in the way our body reacts to situations and conditions. If you mother really has MS then she is going to need your support and understanding as well as encouragement. They have made many advancements in MS. I would encourage you as her daughter to start a regiment of vitamin D of 800 I.U. per day as a preventative measure for yourself from developing MS. My neuologist stongly suggested that all of my children do the same. Check with your doctor about the advantages of vitamin D. I hope this helps you.<br><b>References : </b><br> I have MS as well as three other sisters with MS. This disease can affect people differently.

He has good days and bad ones. There is the MS Society in Australia and in the United States. Their web site is useful and the people there are very helpful. Please take advantage of their commitment and support. I am being a little vague because it impacts on individuals differently. Many carry on normal lives for years, whereas some are debilitated. My brother for example, still works full time but he had an operation installing a bionic bowel movement device recently. He is quite resilient.<br><b>References : </b><br> My brother was diagnosed with MS seven years ago. He has good days and bad ones. There is the MS Society in Australia and in the United States.

Do a google search for Brain Talk Communities. A url with hastry pastry will come up. This is a form of many multiple neuromuscular, conditions, etc. that is powered by Mass/Harvard. MS has huge huge forum on there where you post a question and people reply to you on the forum YOu need to find a great neurologist and have an MRI of her brain to check for lesions. Then if that is negative, she will need to have a spinal tap that is the most definite diagnostic tool. Also go to the MS site and see if there are support groups in your area. Montel Williams has a wonderful site since he has MS. Look up the Multiple Sclerosis society also. Wish you much support!!<br><b>References : </b><br> I have a disease that is similar to MS but I can offer you a great site.
