Distemper Survey Results
Thank you to everyone who took the time to participate in this survey!
We at MSers Online have been talking about different things that may be connected with MS somehow. Distemper and our pets were 1 of the subjects. This survey may help us to understand if there may be a connection or not.
Please tell me your name:(optional)
(Do not hit return.)
Please tell me where you were born:
1) How old are you?
2) When were you diagnosed with MS?
3) How many pets do you have?
