I forgot to mention that memory problems are now also associated with
MS although you'll hardly ever find a doctor who will admit too it.
I saw another message that went into the stripping of the nerve
sheathing so I won't get into that but she covered many of the items
that I didn't.  After reading those messages you should see why the
disease is such a pain.  Speaking of pain you might also encounter
phantom pain.  Good luck.
Frank.
