I bought this book because my MS has been acting up quite a bit. I found the book very informative and useful. I had some things going on with me and I wasn't sure if it was MS related. I checked out swollen ankles and my answer was there with tips on what do to. It saved me a trip to my doctor's office and time off work.
excellent resource!

how can anyone add to the previous review? this book is an excellent resource. it seems to be written, not so much for the clinician, but for those who suffer from ms. however, i agree with the previous reviewer, it could be improved, perhaps, by being more practical or in-touch with the experiences of the m.s. patient or caregiver. much of the management recommendations involve medications, which you may wish to discuss with your *ms specialist*. dr. schapiro offers some very practical suggestions for dealing with symptoms and coping. as new symptoms crop up, i first pick up this book. i, usually, augment it with visiting good web pages. definitely worth the price, used.
