I was in San Francisco for a seminar when I was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis. The day after receiving the call, I remember riding across the Golden Gate Bridge on the bus back to the airport. I was still in shock, and felt like one might after a major breakup, or someone’s unexpected death...

Status quo can only last so long. I was reminded of that this week as various aspects of my life simultaneously imploded, forcing me to make decisions between bad and worse and resulting in a massive upheaval of my current life, both personally and logistically.

I was born on April 24th. Apparently that makes me a shoe-in for MS. In today’s UK Telegraph online, it read “Scientists found mothers who were pregnant during the autumn and winter were most likely to give birth to those who would suffer from the debilitating neurological disease.” Awesome!

Yesterday I had an appointment with my neurologist, who I’ll refer to from here forward as Dr. N. This was my second appointment with him. My first was a month earlier, when I explained that I had been treating my MS with diet and supplements alone, and LDN beginning in March of 2009, and...
