Making a Difference - Eradicate MS
I try to host a
health related post each week in The Locker. I like to share my experiences in
the hopes of helping someone else. I've decided to make a little turn and have
a guest host for the next few weeks.
My friend Brian is
a beast. He cycles more miles in a year than I probably drive in my car. He has
a passion for health, and shares an equal passion to eradicate MS. Please be
kind to Brian and give him a warm welcome.

“MS isn’t an
easy disease to diagnose. In the first place, there is no single test for
multiple sclerosis. Second, the diagnosis cannot be made until the doctor finds
evidence of two episodes of disease activity in the central nervous system that
have occurred at different points in time — which means that confirming the
diagnosis is sometimes a waiting game. And third, most MS symptoms can also be
caused by other conditions, which means that the doctor needs to rule out all
other possible explanations. Very often, when a central nervous system problem,
such as MS is suspected, many tests will need to be done before the diagnosis
is confirmed.” - National
