Well, me missus was 47 when she had her first
episode and her second came 17 months later, so am wondering if age is actually
irrelevant, as she hasn't had a relapse since, eight years later (knock on
wood and thanx Avonex). Hmmmmmm.
cheers,

My 2 cents - my neuro has me dx'd as probable MS but says that
the odds are that because of my age (63) and the age of onset (57), I'm unlikely
to have another serious neurological occurence. Somethin' to hang on to.

Well, from what I've read here and there, age
has nothing to do with when one comes down with either TM or
MS. Hmmmmmm. Maybe you need to come on down to Memphis, or go to Vanderbilt in
Nashville to get a good medical opinion. Bobberino in still very warm Elvisland,(and it's now mid-October...
dang it .... global warming, anyone....????).
Subject: Fwd: [TMIC]
sequel(TMIC) I asked my new neuro if I should be
checked for MS (TMer since 2001)this year and he said I was too old (I'm 63)
to get MS. He also said there was no need for me to come for annual
checkups! Is that true? He was a jerk and I'm looking for a new
doctor. Peachy in
