Brain health guide for people with MS

This is a guide to brain health for people with MS. I'm not sure how different it is from the guide I already posted a link to, but I thought I'd put the link on for completeness. It's here: http://multiple-sclerosis-research.blogspot.com/2016/08/brainhealth-clinicspeak-brain-health.html

Time matters - why take DMTs

I have seen several people asking quite recently - entirely legitimately - about whether they should take a DMT. This is my hobby horse though I am not a Doctor. However, everyone ought to read this. They are all heavyweight neurologists. https://multiple-sclerosis-research.org/ms-brain-health/

We've only got the one brain...

I just stumbled across a neat presentation, with great graphics, from Professor Gavin Giovaninni. It is good to see comparative images of the different expected outcomes depending on how your MS is treated, when and with what.

Why take the most modern DMTs?

This post from the Barts MS blog stats it with science! Having had MS for 26y I feel that I have largely missed out on the brain health benefits of modern DMTs. In an odd sort of way I envy the younger and newly diagnosed people (not the MS part, that sucks) because of the increase in options and t...

Best MS drugs soon after diagnosis

Should your neurologist be offering you the most effective MS drugs soon after diagnosis, before you have any evident disability? The opinion of doctors at Barts (a hospital at the forefront of MS treatment) is that they should. Here's what the doctor said on the Barts MS Blogspot today: " I was ...

They suggest that people with less proactive neurologists might want to take these resources in ...
