I have had MS for 7 years now and back then they claimed there were 250,000 people diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis. I find it VERY had to believe that in 7 years only 150,000 thousand people have been newly diagnosed. For goodness sakes there are more than 250,000 people on Facebook that have MS!
Why does it seem like they are trying to down play the number of people effected by Multiple Sclerosis? It doesn't seem like they try to do this with any other disease. If anything they may raise the number to get more funding. So can someone please explain to me why we don't have an accurate number for those of us effected with Multiple Sclerosis? Unless you believe that our disease is slowly stopping? Ya I wish too!
