So, I've been thinking and wondering about this for some time. How is it that there have been less than 100-200 cases of Ebola and World Health Organization mobilizes a gargantuan effort. And finds an effective treatment.
MS effects 2 to 3 million people worldwide (about 500,000 people in the US alone) and there has been nothing but treatments to 'slow' the progression of the disease. It's maddening.
It's enough to drive you crazy. I have been trying to get some answers from every medical practitioner I see. And I have seen a bunch. My MS neurologist always says that there are 'promising' treatments on the horizen. My PT says that she is 'baffled ' by the lack of progress in finding a ' cure'. I guess the answers I have heard don't satisfy my curiosity.
