Disc Bulge

Hello All, I have PPMS - I think at least five or six years but diagnosed just over two. An MRI around three months ago showed a disc bulge on L4/5 which causes regular pain - especially in night/mornings and weakness on that side (right) and thus mobility and balance issues. I know three non-MS fri...

Miracle

Two days ago a miracle happened with me. I walked 12000 steps, was playing frizbi and "football " Without being tired. Wasn't running just walking without stops 🥲 It was amazing 👏 Just one day miracle, now back to less, and in the end tired mode, but I'm happy 😊

Major change in pain, mobility still the same

Hey guys, I started the Wahls Protocol in July 2024 which has ended my neuropathic pain I had for 7 years. However, i’m still struggling with my mobility. More specifically, left side, foot drop, heavy arm, heavy leg, hand. Anyone has any advice?

Hi I have rrms but latley I seem to be having more episides than usual , I am pretty used with tingling down one leg and regular pain in my sides which I believe is somthing called the ms hug which is reall annoying, but latley I have been experiencing servere pain in my lower jaw and teeth which happen when I touch a certain part of my bottom lip, even licking my lip can set it of, a few days ago it got scary when I was unable to talk due to the pain when simply trying to speak, I am currently on copaxone, this is the first time I have spoke about my ms on a forum apart from speaking to my long suffering partner ( who has to endure my whinging ) I just would like to know if anyone else has this sort of pain and any advice on how to deal with it . Thanks David

Copaxone side effects

Morning all. I was using Copaxone for many years, but stopped around three years ago due to experiencing awful side effects. I used to inject myself in privacy when nobody was at home.
