    No two people experience the disease the same way.

    Each day is different some days your symptoms won’t bother you and other days they will and it is nearly impossible to figure out why.

    Research, research, research – medication, nutrition, exercise, alternative approaches. Don’t blindly follow your doctor’s guidance

    Exercise, exercise, exercise – Biking, dancing, speed walking, strength training, yoga, tai chi – many and/or all of the above

    Nutrition, nutrition, nutrition and I don’t mean dieting.

    Find a doctor who is willing to partner with you along your journey and one who embraces Complimentary Alternative Medicine (CAM)

    Fight the negative feelings because there is hope AND because it is not written in stone that your worst fears will come true. BE POSITIVE.

    Get support from family and friends.
