Anyone else diagnosed with Spinal MS? I had never heard of it until I was diagnosed a year ago. I have cists from my C1 to C7 of my spine. Causes paralysis on my right side and severe nerve pain that is like seering burning needle like pain in my left. My eyes, hearing and memory has been greatly affected too.

At a Glance• Scientists found evidence that a certain gut microbe can trigger autoimmune disease in mice thatare prone to such disease and identified the same microbe inpeople with autoimmune diseases.• The results suggest new avenues for treating debilitating and potentially lethal autoimmune diseases. The lining of the intestine forms a barrier that is crucial to containing gut microbes. If the lining is breached and a gut microbe is able to get into the bloodstream and nearby organs, it can cause disease. Despite the fact that the body has many ways to prevent the breach, microbes sometimes get through.Previous studies have linked certain gut microbes to autoimmune disease, in which the immune system mistakenly attacks the body's own tissues.
