Hi all New to the site. Been given 3 options for treatment and I am siding with Rebif as we are thinking of starting a family soon. What’s people’s thoughts on it? So much information to take it. I’m feeling very confused and overwhelmed. Got diagnosed about 3 weeks ago. Thanks in advance Lucy

Hello this is my first post, although I have been following the forum for several months. I was diagnosed in January and my MS nurse recommended the site. I want to say thank you to you all for all the support you give to each other and new people like me and loads of information that I have picked ...

Hello! I think I need advice from someone a bit more experienced than me. Does any of you have both glaucoma and MS? How do you get it diagnosed? After my recent optic neuritis (in march) my optician suggested a week ago that I might have glaucoma, but that she is not certain, as it damages nerves i...

I'm due to start taking tecfidera soon and wondered how it may affect my exercising? I currently cycle on a static trai...

Hi, I'm Sofia and I was literally diagnosed last week after suffering very mild symptoms here and there since January 2019 which were overlooked, belittled and misdiagnosed. Unfortunately I ended up going into a massive episode (I still don't know lingo) and i woke up one morning not being able to w...

Still in the throes of diagnosis. I was prescribed Baclofen for my left leg but reacted badly including losing all balance and having double vision. Then moved to Gabapentin. My left leg has now swollen and I cannot wear my trousers let alone shoes... What next? Your experience please…
