dalehileman Pooh-Bah Registered: 07/10/05 Posts: 1773 Loc: Apple Valley, CA, USA	Bran thank you for bringing this to my attention though I was looking for a term that might specify intermittent but with period of several years. Evidently there just isn't such a word _________________________ dalehileman

BranShea Carpal Tunnel Registered: 06/23/06 Posts: 3762 Loc: Netherlands, the Hague	Never heard of intermittent multiple sclerosis? That ìs or at least that can be with irregular periods of several years. And that is still the best form of it you can have. Edited by BranShea (11/21/09 06:42 PM)

dalehileman Pooh-Bah Registered: 07/10/05 Posts: 1773 Loc: Apple Valley, CA, USA	I admire you guys' scholarship and persistence. I'd guess relapsing or remitting might bear a sort of negative connotation whereas intermittent is more neutral and thus the best form as Bran says However I'm still not convinced that intermittently implies that elusive unspecified period _________________________ dalehileman
