Hi every body,

My name is John Tortorice  I am married and 43 years old and was originally diagnosed with MS in May 1996 after being told of several other possibilities, I finially found my 4th Neurologist that proved I had what he stated and waited until 2003 to start my Avonex injections.  I was originally in a wheel chair and was told that Avonex doesn't reverse the damage that has happened to me but once I start, it shoulfd stop me from gtting any worse.  Thats all it took as I figured then I will feel better if I'm not getting any worse.  So now I am not in a wheel chair and I have to manage my activities to acheive my goals.  I know that with God on my side, I am a majority in anything I face.  OK, I am just learning how to use this program so please have patience.  I have been through a lot of self medicating ordeals and am very proud to state that as of May 18th 1997 I have been clean and going strong.  Thats about all Iwant to say now so God Bless to every one!

Sincerely,

John Tortorice
