"This book discusses what MS is, and what it is not, and how people can live very full and meaningful lives with a diagnosis of MS. MS is a chronic condition, and it will be with you for your lifetime. It will present challenges that you may not have encountered if MS had not entered your life, but in meeting those challenges you will learn positive actions to take so you can manage this unexpected intrusion into your life and to improve that life. Information and knowledge about MS are exploding. There are now a variety of medications that can make a real difference with MS, and many more are on the horizon. Health care professionals are able to provide comprehensive management for people with MS that goes beyond disease and symptom management. We want you to have all the information and support possible to empower you to live your life to its fullest"-- Provided by publisher. |
