DOES ANYONE KNOW WHAT CIS IS? SOMEONE ASKED ME IF THE DOCTOR EVER SAID CIS.

I was told I had a CIS, it is a Clinically Isolated Syndrone where you have had one episode of MS. You may or may not develope MS, just depends on if you have a second episode and you doctor should be able to give you more information. My MS specialist put me on treatment because of the new studies out there instead of waiting for the next attach. Hope this helps.

Hi, that' great, that really helps, so I just had one episode of MS. I really do not have MS but could get MS, right?

Hi Maggie,
Please get a new doc ASAP.
I say if you had one episode another could be around the corner. I hope not though

CIS! I don't know how it works in Canada or if it matters, but in the US CIS means you can load up on all insurances you (may) need. I think he doesn't want to worry you, no panic for first occurances.

JMHO, now is the perfect time for LDN, to stablize, heal, and maybe keep the DX away forever. I wish I got it before the permanent damages happened :(

Good luck ;)

    I have been here before, a long long time ago and now I am back.Forgive me for not just saying what I want to say,even under a triple dose of antidepressants it is still raw and seeping and I am hesitant at revealing it as at least under the bandages around my heart I don,t have to look at how raw and wounded.My child was cleaved from my heart by his own actions. my child of ten,turning eleven...
