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...

Hello everyone, I've headache which last for a long time. Painkillers can not do anything with it. I really suffer much sometimes like now I do. Does anyone have the same problem and what do you do for coping with it?

Hi to my old friend! That is SHIFT MS! - Not you, well it could be? I guess a stranger is a friend you just haven't met just yet! I was speaking to my OT via video call at hospital during this crazy and unusual time. She suggested going on SHIFT MS and it is a website I joined several years ago and...

Hello I hope everyone is doing well ! I was just wondering if anyone else has experienced hard lumps under the skin !? I spoke to my GP and he told me it could be a cyst or my lymph nodes and I think it is my lymph nodes. Does anyone know how this correlates with Ms ?

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!!...

Anyone else get highly f*cked off when people spread misinformation about the genetic link in MS? Plus the idea that a parent with MS would be less than and is selfish for wanting to have children!? I have enjoyed my life, I am still enjoying my life at 29, 2 years post diagnosis. Had my parents ha...
