Apologies, this is a UK-focused post, but all perspectives welcome. There is a well documented variance in MS services from one area of the UK to the next. The UK MS Society has referred to this as a postcode lottery. What are your experiences? Do you feel lucky to be under the care of your MS cent...

Hi Everyone, Hope everyone is ok. I am just wondering what individuals experiences and advice with trigeminal neuralgia is. I was diagnosed with MS in October and TN was my first symptom starting back in September. My TN is a constant pain on the right hand side of my face/head and has been for jus...

I just feel right now like the closer I am to an answer, the further away I am. I have been sick for 5 years and have had multiple diagnoses - Vitamin B12 deficient, COPD, Asthma, Vertigo, Adrenal Stress, Arthritis, Depression, just general aging. The thing is no matter what meds I took, it seems ...

The reason why I am asking is because I have heard from a number of people (people who don't know each other) that ...

MS is stressing. We MSers know that first hand. Unfortunately seems that my boyfriend of 6 years is only now realizing that. We have been fighting a lot and he has said very hurtful things to me. Its true that he apologizes when his temper has cooled off but truth is that for the past few months we ...

Hi All I am being put forward to try FAMPYRA to see if it helps with my walking. Today my MS Nurse asked me if I was still taking LDN as she wasn't sure if it would be ok with FAMPYRA. Does anybody have experience or know if it will be ok to take both together.

Hi everyone, hope you are all doing well. :) I am interested to hear about people's experiences with Optic Neuritis, and in particular those who have had a slow recovery from it.
