I have been doing some thinking, I know not good but I have a theory, Why is it MS is so prevalent in colder climates? Let me know what you think of this, I know it sounds so simple that no one would believe but I wonder still. I got my first symptoms on January 3rd 1998 I know that date because I was in a very bad accident on the highway. My truck left the road and ended up laying on its side about 60 feet down a mountain and 200 feet through the trees. (I live in BC)
I have to wonder if Canada and the colder provinces don't have a higher rate of MS because those persons that deal with ice or snow fall more than someone in BC would, let alone every prairie kids favorite activity in the winter is to go tobogganing, I know it seems so simple but I have crashed tobogganing, skiing and snowboarding and hands down tobogganing is the worst. So my question to all of you is can any of you think of a bad accident that happened to you just before you developed MS or should I say CCSVI. If so please comment.
Also I am from Manitoba but I had no issues until my serious truck accident and it was immediate, the same day Jan 3rd 1998. Think hard about this I know for some it won't be easy because it has been so long. It makes me wonder if MS really exists. Also why is it more prevalent today than it was a couple generations ago I wonder if it has something to do with more cars on the road = more accidents. Last point: Russia is number 2 for the amount of people with MS and I think that sort of fits into my theory. I would love to know how many of us had head on neck injuries before our MS diagnoses
