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

Solu-Medrol is AMAZING!!!

The Solu-Medrol infusion I had yesterday was incredible. I’m still in shock at how fast it started working—within hours of the infusion, I could feel the difference. By the end of the day, the limp, gait issues, and balance problems in my right foot were completely gone. Over the past 6 weeks, ther...
