Hi Bill

I thought I could smell burning the other day! Now I know where it was coming from )

dreams and violent action than those who only get it after the meds. That alone may be a difference between the specific type of MSA.

Could be right here Bill. There must be some difference with the before and after meds.

10-15% of the cost before hospitalization. Other countries may be much more representative of the total MSA population. Don't think we have enough people out of the States to sample. I can never figure out why this is. Why are so many more diagnosed in the States?! WOT you got in the States that other countries dont have much of???? I know bigger population etc but. There are good docs in many countries but few diagnosed. Or more likely, less find the group? glaring link to any chemical environmental polutant. Since there is some evidence of free radical involvement, maybe we should look at diet (fried food junkies) or ) chocolate ) How about diet drinks? (I think we did diet drinks also).

I have never been one much for fried foods, or much of a chocolate eater. Did drink diet coke for years though but this was after diagnosis. So, none of those would fit me!

I am still thinking of a possible childhood illness? How for example does german measles affect a foetus very often if a mother to be contracts it in the first three months? I don't know the mechanics of it, but not all babies are affected. Not saying this is a possible cause because not many mothers to be get this. Could it be possible though that one of these illnesses can have a neurological effect on some, and lay dormant for years. Possibly then something could trigger it into action. Guess you can smell burning from here now!!

Glad you missed out on the snow!

hello everyone,

I have been reading and trying to put pieces together also. My husband has

not had a final diagnosis of MSA, although his neuro. thinks that is what he

may have. His symptoms certainly are similar to many of yours. He will be

flying out to see Dr. Gillman in MI, who I have noticed some have

reccomended on this site.

My husband has been the picture of health pretty much all his life. Always

eating the right foods. He has never been a junk food eater nor has he

drank diet drinks. He has always worked out and taken care of himself, so I

find it ironic that he is the one who has such an illness. He does have

dreams where he yells and lashes out, but these are infrequent and he is on

no medication and never has been. I also have a friend who's husband has

violent dreams of the vietnam war, and he does not have a neurological

disorder. I wonder how much of these dreams are normal or happen to those

without MSA.

Who knows what the cause could be, but the only way to find out is to pool

our recourses and compare our experiences. This site is very helpful to me

and my family and I hope we can put the puzzle together.
