This is a unique guide for women dealing with the difficulties of multiple sclerosis. After she was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis in 1976, author Judith Lynn Nichols realized that people suffering from chronic illness fare better when they share experiences with people fighting the same disease. While researching MS on the Internet, she connected with a group of women fighting to live with MS. The group quickly became each woman's support network, and, in the daily emails compiled in this book, they offered each other wisdom and humor about everything this disorder affects: diagnosis, employment, spirituality, family reactions, sexuality, pain control, depression, and more.

Multiple sclerosis is a chronic neurological disorder affecting the central nervous system, and affects an estimated 2.5 million people worldwide, 400,000 in the US and 85,000 in the UK. Two-three times as many women as men have MS. The cause is unknown but genetic factors may be implicated. MS occurs when myelin, the fatty sheath that protects the nerves, is lost in large areas, leaving scar tissue called sclerosis and disrupting the neuronal pathways in the brain. Symptoms are various and may include changes in mental ability (such as poor memory and attention span), problems with bladder control, depression, fatigue, difficulty walking, balance problems, abnormal sensations such as numbness and pins and needles, and pain. However, contrary to popular myth, MS doesn't always result in severe disability and much can be done to make life easier. This book looks at: possible causes, symptoms and treatment; occupational and speech therapy; pregnancy; the latest on diet, including the popular 'Best Bet' exclusion diet; exercise; complementary therapies; and emotional help.

When people get the MS diagnosis it can seem that the good life is over---but it doesn't have to be that way. What is needed is a clear and simple strategy, to live their best life without letting MS take over. Beyond MS---Your Best Life is for those living with MS---or with any great challenge that threatens to end the hope of a good life. That doesn't have to be the end of the story. The author, Rosalie Richards, has MS, has faced these challenges, and has found these strategies to work. This book presents the strategies in a clear, no-nonsense and humorous way. They are presented in a step-by-step manner so that they can immediately be put into action. The book includes stories of 21 people who show different ways of living beyond MS while living with it. I choose to focus on what I can do rather than what I can't, said one person. What she managed to do is impressive. After her diagnosis she completed her goal of reaching the summit of the 48 mountains in New Hampshire that are over 4,000 feet. Though MS now limits her ability to climb mountains, her spirit is indomitable. Her doctor believes this is why she is still walking, though she has had MS for over 30 years.

Because most people who are diagnosed with MS are between the ages of 15-55 years, the disease has a significant impact, not only on the individual with the disease, but also on the family members and loved ones whose lives are interwoven with them. Families experiencing multiple sclerosis often find themselves in uncharted territory. Prior patterns of interacting with each other may no longer work; roles often shift with dramatic emotional impact; guilt, anger, sadness, and a sense of burden may create a barrier to intimacy, joy, growth, and family unity. There are ways out of this debilitating situation, and many families have restored their balance, humor, productivity and family solidarity. Multiple Sclerosis: A Guide for Families can lead the way for your family to strengthen its coping skills and to receive targeted information about the disease and its ramifications. This complete yet highly readable guide for families living with multiple sclerosis addresses these issues and more. Families must learn how to strike a reasonable balance between the interests and needs of its members, and to accommodate the limitations imposed by MS without allowing them to impact every aspect of family life. This is easier said than done, and extensive discussions consider how the basic goals of living with this chronic disease can be met.
