    We report here about many MS studies that are in their very early stages. I can’t get excited about them because only rarely do they result in approved MS treatments.

    How do you feel? Do you read about these studies? Do they give you hope?

    The idealist in me still gets a little excited about positive results in an animal study, but the realist in me tells me that those results May not pan out in human studies and that even if they do it will be a decade or more before results are seen.
