Hello! I am wondering if any else has experience around this. Quick summary, I was diagnosed last year and only started treatment this week (the nhs lost my records 🙁so it was delayed). Before starting Kesimpta I asked about any vaccines I should get and was told nothing live, but I didn’t need any...

Switching from Ocrevus to Kesimpta

Well I think that this has been the shortest time frame I have ever been on ANY! type of medication. I was diagnosed in March of this year with heart palpitations due to the medication. I gave it fair shot and I just can not deal with the anxiety attacks feeling, the off beat of my heart once in aw...

Sensation in feet

I'm scheduled to establish with a neurologist in early July, however, right now my feet feel like their always waking up from being asleep. Kinda like ever so light fluttering that feels like they are moving when laying or sitting. Anyone else experience this? What helps?

So, I am a scuba diver and probably have over 100 dives under my belt but I haven’t been since my diagnosis. My hubbie and I would like to go again in probably december. Anybody know if MS is something that has to be disclosed? Can they not allow you to dive? I’m good under water, the only thing I’ve found I need help with is getting out, just taking off my fins and bcd/tank and I’m good. Any experience or advice out there? I can’t snowboard any more, don’t want to lose this too!

Does normal food worsen MS symptoms? And do you experience so much water consumption?

Hi, has anyone got experience of starting a DMD after years of finishing and essentially opting out? I've been assigned a new consultant and I'm looking into being approved for one? Has anyone been turned down? Back in the day I had Copaxone and Avonex for a few years.
