Multiple scleroses? |
My mum and dad both has M.S and appernlty my great, great grandma had M.S to, is there a risk of me getting M.S? Please only serious answers! My husband has MS and, as far as I am aware, no one else in his family has had it...however my daughter has been told that she has a higher risk of having MS and so do her children....don't know what the percentage rate is though.... had a look on the MS website and got this info for you.....as you can see opinions differ somewhat to your own life experience: Genetic factors MS is not directly inherited and, unlike some conditions, there is no single gene that causes it. It is possible that a combination of genes make some people more susceptible to developing MS; however these genes are also common in the general population. So genes are only part of the story and other factors are also involved in MS. Whilst MS can occur more than once in a family, it is more likely this will not happen. Indeed, there is only a two per cent chance of a child developing MS when a parent is affected. This risk is much lower than, for example, the risk of developing cancer or heart problems when a parent is affected.

Hi there - My Father-in-Law also has M.S and I have checked with the doc on this as was worried when pregnant with my babies. Apparently it is not a genetic condition and I was advised not to worry at all. I hope this helps. I have had MS for 22 years have kids 33-30-29 none of them have it but I was 37 before I came down with it and there has been no one in my family with it that I know of You must get checked out and all your relations for borreliosis / lyme disease and vitamin B12 deficiency-as many people with ms are found to have these complaints,but I am not 100% sure that in your cases it applies.Look at the web site below for more details of the special hospital that is run by proper doctors,look also at the symptom list for borrelia / lyme disease. www.breakspearmedical.com |
