Looking for
something specific?

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...

I am looking for advice from people who have taken Tysabri while pregnant. I just started my 3rd trimester and I would like to continue taking Tysabri through the whole pregnancy. It is very hot where I live right now and I am scared that if I stop the Tysabri my symptoms will get much worse. I also...

There’s quite a bit of literature online for this, and I will be talking to me doctor of course. But as I am on Tecfidera, I was hoping one of you on my team would have a word for me in regard to taking the medication while A) trying to conceive B) while breastfeeding. I know you don’t take the me...

Hi. I'm Piper. I have PPMS. I've never experienced a remission. This month has been extremely frightening because at 1st, it was just my right foot getting cold..(noticeably much colder to the touch)..(not the numb-like feeling as much).

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. I feel like people that don't have MS don't really get it. If I say I'm tired they say oh I am too, erm it's not the same!!...

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...

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 ...

Hello all. Here is a post which I hope communicates a positive event in spite of, and separate to, MS. First, to say that I am not at all a vain person, but have always appreciated being relatively trim and spritely due to good genes. For many decades I have maintained a constant weight, give or tak...

I want to share my experiences with everyone about my ketogenic diet. The Keto diet is very low in carbohydrates and high in healthy fats with a medium protein intake, and it is designed to put you into ketosis, which makes your body burn fat for energy, instead of glucose. The benefits can be ama...
