    Nothing will ruin your wedding experience faster than burning yourself out if you have multiple sclerosis (MS). Many people forget that "their wedding" includes all the time necessary to plan the big day! Part of your plan should be time to meet both practical needs and impractical pampering. Here are some things to remember:
    • Make and keep regular appointments with your doctor.
    • Never forget to take your medication.
    • Schedule your appointments carefully.
    • Don't try to pack too much into one day, no matter how tempting.
    • Make sure you have adequate time for sleeping, eating, and healthy exercise.
    • Schedule a few spa or massage appointments.
    Planning a wedding can be a piece of cake! MS adds extra considerations, but all it takes is patience and preparation. Plan for your special needs, and your wedding day will be everything you hope for!
