[quote=Anonymous]10 years ago, a Harvard MD told me "Welcome to the world of MS." Some of the literature I read at that time said things like "Half of all people diagnosed with MS will be in a wheelchair within 10 years." I was devastated, since I have always been very active and spend a lot of time outdoors. I had many of the classic symptoms as well as some of the weird ones, including Lhermitte's sign (electric shock-like sensations down the spine when you move your head down), urinary urgency, double vision, even itchy feet. These lasted for weeks. They found one lesion on an MRI, which disappeared within 3 months. Repeat MRIs every 6 months and then yearly for a couple years found nothing. I've never had symptoms again, although I worried about it constantly for years. I've heard of this happening to a few other people. Uncommon, but it is possible...it's known as benign MS.[/quote]
