About this listen
Being diagnosed with multiple sclerosis (MS) doesn't mean your life is over. Everyone's MS is different and no one can predict exactly what yours will be like. The fact is, lots of people live their lives with MS without making a full-time job of it.
Multiple Sclerosis for Dummies gives you accessible, easy-to-understand information about what happens with MS - what kinds of symptoms it can cause, how it can affect your life at home and at work, what you can do to feel and function better, and how you can protect yourself and your family against the long-term unpredictability of the disease. You'll learn how to make treatment and lifestyle choices that work for you, what qualities to look for in a neurologist and the rest of your healthcare team, how to manage fatigue, the pros and cons of alternative medicine, why and how to talk to your kids about MS, stress management strategies, your rights under the Americans with Disabilities act, and so much more.
Multiple Sclerosis for Dummies gives you everything you need to make educated choices and comfortable decisions about living with MS.

Over 90 percent of the population suffers from inflammation or an autoimmune disorder. Until now, conventional medicine has said there is no cure. Minor irritations like rashes and runny noses are ignored, while chronic and debilitating diseases like Crohn's and rheumatoid arthritis are handled with a cocktail of toxic treatments that fail to address their root cause. But it doesn't have to be this way.

The author of the highly acclaimed Overdiagnosed describes seven widespread assumptions that encourage excessive, often ineffective, and sometimes harmful medical care. You might think the biggest problem in medical care is that it costs too much. Or that health insurance is too expensive, too uneven, too complicated - and gives you too many forms to fill out. But the central problem is that too much medical care has too little value.

Informative for newly diagnosed
It can help patient as well as family & friends if willing to learn & understand this invisible mysterious disease & not be so judgmental on everything.
I am diagnosed with progressive neurological disability of spinal cord as a result of inflammation.
Probable PPMS ... Possible Acute Transverse Myelitis
NMO is not off the hook & all mimics similar symptoms but different therapy approach.

Useless and not worth the money or time.
I was diagnosed with MS last month. I purchased this book bc I need this disease explained in layman’s terms. It gave me no answers. Nothing explained. Everything is “but be hopeful” and “there is hope”. I want it explained. Simplified. I don’t want to hear about being hopeful and given encouragement. Just the facts ma’am. This book was a waste of my time and my money. Very disappointed.
