I think this was supposed to go to the list.

hey steve,

sounds like we're in much the same boat physically--though i'm a single

mom of 39 (MS for 20 years now) in fresno CA, we've got the same

fighting spirit. keep at it, and keep re-examining stuff you're doing

that may be harming you. i rationalized smoking a few cigarettes a day

and drinking coffee for years on the grounds that i needed to--and as

soon as i stopped due to a severe health crisis (only a few weeks ago),

i felt so much better--am actually sleeping, way more patience and

optimism, less spasticity, etc.which i need a lot more, lol....

my suggestion to you is to write down all your symptoms in a table, then

food journal for a week and see what makes which worse. it's a bit of a

pain at first but the info that you get will be nothing short of

miraculous. you can get a lot from this mscured list, it's true, but

instead of barking up a whole bunch of trees, listen to your own body,

which has its own issues. i would recommend, however, cutting out gluten

and dairy. that does seem to be pretty unanimous. best of luck, and if i

can help you with anything, plese let me know.

love and healing light,

aviva
