Read Moredoctor responded to my knowledge.Knowing I already have had thyroid for several years when he told me I had Lupus it was no shock.I also know some illness can be drug induced but not my case.We require certain minerals and vitamins as they exsist in the body.Iodine is connected to the thyroid function.We know that hormones play a big role in our health, what we eat and theres environmental issues and if we dont care for ourselfs or have the knowlegde to or can not afford to it makes it difficult.I understand because I have been there myself lack of knowlegde and not being able to afford to.I do endless hours of research things that already have been researched and I do it for free.I share what I have uncovered through others.I hope this helps.Sincerely Angela

Julie Greer does the MS Society have any feed back on the H1N1 vaccine. I myself having ms have many concerns regarding this vaccine, such as the preservative used in this vaccine contains mercury, the very short testing time before it was released and long term effects, is there any advise that you could offer

I myself have never taken the flu shot but I am considering taking the H1N1 vaccine only because this flu is a lot more dangerous.

I would rather have an exacerbation from the shot than have the risk of dying from not taking the shot.

It is a personal choice. There is no right or wrong answer.... Read More
I'm just going to leave it up to God.

I'm joining to support my mother. She was diagnosed with progressive-relapsing MS when she was 18 and she just celebrated her 50th birthday. At this point she is no longer able to talk most days and she cannot care for herself in any way. I want MS to end because I do not want anyone else to have to go through what ...my mother has, or for anyone else to lose their mother, or other family member or friend for that matter, to such a devastating disease. Also, I did want to say how great it is that the MS society is connecting people who are affected by MS through mediums such as facebook. I grew up in a small town with no one, other than my immediate family, to talk to about what was happening and it was extremely difficult.Read More
