I think that most of us have gotten that comment at some point and I hear it a lot. I will take this as a compliment, and a curse to an extent. It's hard to explain thsi disease to anyone and this is one aspect that is hard. Glad we don't look sick, but tell that to my body. It also makes diagnosis tougher for non-wegs doctors as they overlook it since we look fine.
Maybe it's their way of making us feel better? Who knows, but I'm glad they don't say "you look like crap or death"!
