Hi After 4 years on alemtuzumab I was due to move to Ocrevus (following breakthrough activity) in April. Bad timing. I'm treated at the National Hospital for Neurology and Neurosurgery, and was told yesterday that infusions the new patients might not be available until September/October. A huge cau...

<p>Afternoon all,<br> –<br> Not sure when I ought to drop the Covid-19 tag from the headline. I think it should last as long the lockdown lasts. We see the conversation subtly changing now to more of the looking ahead. You can’t panic forever.<br> ——<br> MS Stuff<br> R...</p>

Before I start, I want to say, I know it's early days... I was diagnosed in Aug 2019 with RRMS after 18months with a CIS diagnosis.

Hi there I’m from Australia, moved to the UK in 2018. In 2009, following a bout of extended vertigo (originally suspected to be labrynthitis) an MRI found a number of MS like lesions. Neurological examination was normal, and a follow up MRI several months later found no changes. Neurologist recomme...

Just went to the dentist and saw the dental hygienist. She asked if anything had changed with my health so I mentioned being recently diagnosed with MS. She didn't say anything. AT ALL. For 30 minutes until the appointment was over at which point she launched into a talk on functional medicine and t...

Hi I have recently been diagnosed with Ms and am reluctant to take medication and therefore have been looking into alternative treatments. I feel hopeful about Dr Coimbra's vitamin d protocol which has been backed up by many other doctors such as Dr Berg. I have started taking high doses of vitam...

Hello I've been recently diagnosed, I'm still getting my head round it, fed up with the chronic pain, I'm working mum with two kids. My MS Nurse is coming to see me next week.
