something specific?

I was diagnosed with relapse remitting MS in around 2010, and have been very fortunate to only experience 1 relapse since this first attack. It may be coincidence, however since the initial diagnosis and subsequent treatment, I have been experiencing back pain which is worse in the morning. The pain...

Is SPMS a gradual transition or can it happen quite quickly. Does it come out of the blue or follow after a relapse. Any information appreciated thanks

He doesn't quite articulate what he thinks these other doctors can do for me. My brother reads a lot of books about h...

Hi there, Ive had MS (relapse and remittance) for 15 year now. I was just wondering whether anyone has heard of 'Soursop' or have tried the herbs/ drink. If so, How did you find it? The reason why I am asking is because I have heard from a number of people (people who don't know each other) that ...
