I'm curious since this has now happened to me TWICE. Someone I hardly know is suddenly very, very interested in my health and welfare! This person has a vitamin cream or a juice drink that is 'backed by scientific evidence' that can 'cure' MS. "Just wait until you hear this story," I am told.
The products are expensive and I want no part of them. Now I wonder, should I investigate further? Or will I be throwing my money away? Both of the individuals who have approached me have been not 'put off easily'! I haven't yet purchased anything or even listened to the full 'sales pitch,' but can't help wondering if I may be throwing away a possibly good opportunity?
I'd like to know if any of you have had this same experience with a 'do-gooder' who wants to sell you a miracle vitamin/juice/other for you MS?

My thoughts exactly! And...the pharmaceutical companies would each be trying to be the one to get the patent on the miracle drug (which no doubt would cost a small fortune). : )
Thanks to all of you for your responses!
I'll stick to my avonex (despite my apprehension of the injections) and faith in God. Exercise, good diet, and massage therapy plus perhaps physical therapy and of course, positive thinking, are what I am counting on to manage this disease.
QUACK, QUACK, QUACK!
