Multiple Sclerosis Persuasive Speech

“I was 7 years old when the right side of my face went numb, and I started slurring my speech. I felt really sick with "the flu" and was so tired, I kept falling asleep in class. In gym class, I was running, and my legs suddenly jerked up, and I fell down. I couldn't move my legs or stand up. I got some feeling back and was able to walk in a robotic manner.

Whether you have been diagnosed with epilepsy recently, or it is something you have suffered with your whole life, the idea of seizures preventing you from getting or keeping your driver’s license might be discouraging. If you are in this position, you might be wondering just how long you have to wait until you can get your license. While the general rule is that you must be seizure-free for a specific period of time and get a physical examination, the amount of time you have between your latest seizure and when you can drive again depends upon the state.

In the world of neurology, there are a vast amount of neurological disorders, conditions, and diseases. One severe disease is known as Multiple Sclerosis. In this research essay, I will be discussing what multiple sclerosis is, symptoms, causes, personal experience, and treatments.

It was bought to my attention from Forbes that “health plans,

Thank you so kindly! I emailed Professor Edwards and asked him about online publications, but I am sure they will be fine. In regards to ideas for articles, I do have a few.

I do agree with you that is it so costy to remove a keloid when the risk for having is grow back is no high and unpredictable. The individaul would have to consider the pain they will go through surgically and the down time in recovering and to just have it grow back, but this time larger.

In order to examine public awareness and knowledge of multiple sclerosis, a small scale survey and personal interviews will be utilized.

The purpose of the research project was to identify what level of knowledge the public have about Multiple Sclerosis. The research question was ‘how knowledgeable are the public regarding Multiple Sclerosis?’.
