How to refer to someone with MS?
In April 2012 we did a survey of people with MS asking them which term they preferred being used when describing someone with MS. The majority (55%) preferred the term MSer. Despite this result several professionals and professional publishers have rejected the use of this term. We would therefore like to redo this poll to make sure we got it right and to explore the subject in more detail. We also need to be confident about persisting with our campaign to get the word MSer accepted by the professional community, i.e. neurologists and journal editors.

Would you support a campaign to get the term MSer accepted as an official word?
If yes, we would have to apply to the Oxford English Dictionary for this to occur.
