We are thinking to relocate to the south of Illinois ( Mount Vernon/Carbondale Area).
Does anybody here know of a good neurologist / Hospital that I could go to get my MS treated? I just got diagnosed beginning of August and still suffering with ON.
Thank you and have a nice day

I live in the area but unfortunately I cannot recommend anyone. My MS care is via the VA medical system which means my neurologist is 2hrs away in St. Louis.

There is a local MS support group that met monthly before COVID hit. Contacting some of those members may provide some good info: https://www.nationalmssociety.org/Chapters/ILD/...

Oh dear, sounds like he needs to do some *serious* changes to his lifestyle to try to get a handle on that.

Cost of living issues were huge factors in me moving here for me moving here from New England.

> He gets stressed really easily, that’s the main problem.

And that's one of the tougher ones to address -- how to change your thinking and reactions and views of things. I wish him luck!
