Hi all you MS'ers, Im james 43 live in the uk,I was told I had MS in 94, but thinking about it I have had it a long time, over the years I have watched and felt the illness with great interest often thinking why me.What I believe is, as a child I was forced to live life on my nervs as my father was an evil dad, never did I wake or go home from school without butterflys in my tummy.Now stress as we all know inflames the nevouse system affecting the myelin sheath, i believe as a child you are still developing so if anything is different from what it should be, your immune system will not recognise it, so attacking it. Over the years I learned that emotional stress makes the MS jump up and kick ass, so I decided not to get emotionally involved with anything or anyone, was hard but it works, people call me cold and emotionless which is good because I want to be.I'm just a guy who understands what his body needs to keep his brain happy, and what the brain needs to keep his mind happy.Ok my legs have grown week, nothing a rowing machine can't put right.I'm me its my MS so what I say goes, everyone who looks at me without the understanding of living with an illness that can be very unique, can understand or walk away.Oh and red wine is so good for relaxing them tierd mucles...so cheers guys all the best
