Hi my name is Dominique. I went into the hospital last week because I had some type of stiffness, weakness on my left side. I instantly thought it was side effects to my medication, but long behold, after a MRI, they found lesions in my brain and spinal cord. Being diagnosed with RRMS and being a ...

In the future, when our kids are the parents... 🤔 ‘Oh my god, these kids are doing my head in. Six weeks is so long.......’ Six weeks? SIX WEEKS?? Try six chuffing months! You parents today haven’t got a clue what we went through in 2020. Six months of entertaining you little shits, and we could...

Has anyone else with MS been helped following a Keto diet? I've been following this for the past 8 months and finding it very helpful, but am aware that it contravenes so much MS advice about keeping to a low-fat diet.

Having made contact with my MS team in the weeks leading up to this to check that I should still go ahead in the current climate (Coronavirus), I repeatedly got the answer back that m...

I’m returning to work next week after 4 months of furlough. My job entails some lifting of items up and down the stairs and since being off my mobility and strength has deteriorated somewhat. Any advice on how I can speak to my employer about these issues as a little worried about broaching this sub...

Hi all, hope you are keeping well and safe in these unusual times. I am newly diagnosed in March, first symptoms 18 months ago and 1 minor relapse 6 months ago. Other than that I am lucky not to have any symptoms of note. I discussed with my MS nurse DMT drugs early March and my neurologist recom...

We’re campaigning with Age UK, the Trade Union Congress (TUC) and 9 other charities. Together, we’re calling for the furlou...
