are there people with multiple sclerosis who have only one or two symptoms all their life?benign like type?

---

the doctors told me 2 months ago that i probably have MS, because I i had one symptom at one of my eyes(i was not capable to see) and the first analysis showed that i was loseing mieline.

besides this symptom i had nothing else yet and i understood that when this disease starts with this symptom it might be benign and stop there or have only a second manifestation..is that true..was anyone in this case?
Hello,
The majority of people diagnosed with MS have Relapsing Remitting MS.I was diagnosed with it 8 years ago, but I had my first attack several years before that.
I have been very very lucky that I have only had 2 exacerbation's in 15years..I have one MS friend that had 2 in 20 years, to me , both are pretty benign.I have almost no symptoms. some numbness in my left and I don't always have the stamina that I used to, but I will take it !
My best advise is to research the disease modifying drugs , see which best suits your needs and lifestyles.Eat a good balanced diet, watch your weight, exercise and STAY POSITIVE !It really helps
.Support groups can be very helpful if you find a positive group.I visited a group that was filled with the most depressed people !OMG I thought I was going to have to have help to my car..They just sucked the life out of me ! Life with MS isn't always easy..but I try to remember "always blessings , never losses"MS is by far not the worse out there..
Good Luck !  (+ info)

people that have multiple sclerosis what type of work can they do?

---

Some folks already touched on this, but the short answer is "it depends." Since MS is a very personal disease, because it affects everyone that has it in a different way, it will depend on:

- what symptoms you have
- how frequently you have relapses
- how debilitating the relapses are

My MS allows me to continue work, and I intend to continue until something changes, and then I'll deal with it when I get there.  (+ info)

If you have Multiple Sclerosis, what type do you have?

---

I have RRMS and I was diagnosed 11 years ago. I am afraid because I learned that statistics say that after 10 years the 85% of RRMS patients will develop Secondary Progressive. What symptoms do you look for to know things are really going downhill and what new meds are on the horizon? I take Betaseron every other day and I receive Solumedrol and Prednisone at least once a year, maybe more. Please share
Hi There..
I am a 50 yr old F with RRMS.I have had MS for many years and have never progressed .I don't take many meds, Betaseron and cymbalta are it. I haven't had an attack in more than 8 years and I feel great 99% of the time.
I stopped reading the statistics YEARS ago.If I had listened to them I would have been bedridden by now . But instead I still work full time, I exercise and lead an active life. I learned to ride a motorcycle this summer.I take each day at a time and don't worry about tomorrow.If the time comes when I cant do the things I can do today I will worry about it then . I believe that attitude is half the battle .If you lay down , MS will take over !
Good luck and stay strong !  (+ info)

Is Multiple Myeloma a type of blood cancer?

Multiple myeloma is a cancer that begins in plasma cells, a type of white blood cell. These cells are part of your immune system, which helps protect the body from germs and other harmful substances. In time, myeloma cells collect in the bone marrow and in the solid parts of bone.  (+ info)

vagial intraepithelial neoplasia (VIN type 1)?

---

I've been diagnosis with vagial intraepithelial neoplasia (VIN type 1) it came back twice. Has anyone had this, will it turn into cancer later.
Vaginal Intrapethelial Neoplasia I (VAIN) is the very first stage of vaginal dysplasia, it is very mild, so you caught it early which is great. I have VAIN too, (unsure what stage) but the doctor said I would be looking at surgery soon, so I am guessing a biopsy is coming soon too! OUCH. I also have VIN which is vulvar dysplasia.

Since this is the second time you have had VAIN pop up and you are under the care of a doctor I doubt very seriously that it could spread to invasive cancer unnoticed. I am assuming your doctor has you on a "watch & wait" plan, a check-up every 3-6 months, so chances are if it gets worse he will treat it. VAIN, which is caused from HPV is very slow growing and rarely goes invasive. I hope this calms your fears a little. I help run a support group for women with VAIN, VIN, and CIN if you are interested, we would love to have you. No one should go this alone.  (+ info)

What type of mortar and pestle would you recommand using and why?

---

I use a lot of herbs for cooking and spellcraft. A number of recipes require that I pound the herbs with a mortar and pestle to release its aroma and flavor. So, I am thinking about purchasing them. However, I know that they are made using different types of materials - including wood and glass. For someone that is planning on using these tools on multiple occasions for multiple reason what type of mortar and pestle would you recommend that I purchase?
The marble ones....they are long lasting and durable.  (+ info)

Could Fibromyalgia be a sort of mild type of Multiple Sclerosis?

---

In multiple sclerosis, there are demyelinating lesions in the brain.

I don't think these lesions are found in fibromyalgia. Therefore, I don't think these diseases are the same.  (+ info)

Is it possible for a person to have multiple personality disorder, but remember everything?

---

I believe that I have a multiple personality disorder of some type, but I can remember everything the alternate does. Everything that I've read contradicts this. It seems like I'm within myself when it happens, that I can only sit back and watch as the alternate acts for me.
I think you misdiagnosed yourself honestly, I have the same thing but its called Depersonalization.

"Depersonalization (or depersonalisation) can be referred as a malfunction or anomaly of the mechanism in which an individual has awareness or perception of his or her own self. It is a feeling of watching oneself act, while having no control over a situation"  (+ info)

Got a pair of wide leg drawstring jeans from the Gap for Christmas. Cute, but normally not my style. They have no belt loops and I would describe them as a true blue indigo color. What color/ type of shirt do I wear with them. I've got the shoes covered all ready, have multiple colors of shoes.
a tight fitting blouse tucked in:
(white or black but honestly, any color will look fine)
