Summary: A Balanced Source of Information for Patients & Others
Comment: If a copy of this book could fall from the sky onto the desks of people with possible, probable, or definite MS the minute the first twinge of their disorder occurred, life for people with MS and their friends and doctors would be infinitely improved. This is undoubtedly the most practical book I've read for those affected by MS in any way. Many books about MS try to offer definitive answers where there are none, or poo-poo certain theories of cause or treatment while giving others glowing and incomplete reviews, or take overly optimistic or pessimistic views of living with MS. This book, however, gives a refreshingly balanced discussion of the disease and how to cope with it.

The book begins with concise and compassionately written chapters on what MS is and isn't and what to expect during neurological testing. Information provided ranges from choosing a wheelchair to how to stay out of one. Nutrition, mental health, allopathic and "alternative" treatments, day-to-day living and disclosure to friends and co-workers are among the topics discussed.

The only unfortunate thing about this book is that is was written in 1993, and, since then, many advances in the medical treatment of MS have been made. Still, Living Well with MS has something to offer anyone with an interest in MS
