Very well written and easy to understand. Is it possible to predict the type of disability one has depending on the position of the lesions? Another thing I’d like to understand is why some pwMS get pain and others don’t.

Thank you. That was very clear. Looking down the barrel of DMD is very scary. It’s great to have it explained matter of factly.

When will someone finally tell the truth about the true cause of MS - Glenard's Syndrome and the real treatment will begin?

This is a great start to what will hopefully become a comprehensive resource. Presume this is your response to the (many, helpful) suggestions made to your 'rake responsibility for yourself' post? Apologies if I've got that wrong!

Thank you for this easy educational read. I now think I might have Lhermitte's sign - I had thought the problem was in the bones in my neck but MRI showed normal wear and tear and I had no answer until now. I will speak to my neurologist at my next appointment.

Prof G this is very good. Thank you.

Are you also going to be doing a Q&A newsletter related to the management of MS?
