      From judyz May 29

      Hi, just wanted to welcome you. I'm a former Philly girl stuck in this hole they call Richmond, VA! Have had MS diagnosed for almost 8 years now but knew I had it much much longer. In the Southlands it is hard to get a diagnosis, hell it is hard to get anything done here! Send me good vibes and happenings about Philly as I truly miss it! Good luck with copaxone. I have been on it since diagnosis. see subtle changes (not too great) but fearful to stop. Pinning my hopes on the new Accorda drug or Liquinomod and at the far reaches Stem Cell treatment in Costa Rica!

      Good vibes your way.
