Summary

Being diagnosed with multiple sclerosis (MS) doesn't mean your life is over. Everyone's MS is different and no one can predict exactly what yours will be like. The fact is, lots of people live their lives with MS without making a full-time job of it.

Multiple Sclerosis for Dummies gives you accessible, easy-to-understand information about what happens with MS - what kinds of symptoms it can cause, how it can affect your life at home and at work, what you can do to feel and function better, and how you can protect yourself and your family against the long-term unpredictability of the disease. You'll learn how to make treatment and lifestyle choices that work for you, what qualities to look for in a neurologist and the rest of your healthcare team, how to manage fatigue, the pros and cons of alternative medicine, why and how to talk to your kids about MS, stress management strategies, your rights under the Americans with Disabilities act, and so much more.

Multiple Sclerosis for Dummies gives you everything you need to make educated choices and comfortable decisions about living with MS.

American and mostly recommendations

I found most of this was just recommendations for different apps or sites, which didn't even work in the uk anyway. It seemed to be small amounts of info followed by long detailed sites to visit. If these sites were written separately and provided on a pdf, the audible book could have probably been reduced down to an hour max.

Really just for the United States

Extremely repetitive especially , the phone number and website for the us and really needs to be noted that this is basically only for Americans.
