Hi I'm new here and I'm wondering if anybody's experienced eye issues this is the first for me. I've been diagnosed since 2007. Most of my lesions are in my brain and my spinal cord on the top. And I didn't have any eye pain but I had like lights sparkle flashing I had a blackout in my right eye for about 30 minutes the first day the second day it was only a few minutes and then the third day my eye was swollen shut. I went to the hospital for 3 days they put me on steroids ruled out a stroke. There was only a visiting neurologist because I was out of state and they had no answers so just curious if anybody can give me any feedback on that thank you..❤️

Has anyone had HSCT stem cell treatments and what were your results? Thinking about getting it done. Thanks for any feedback you can provide.

I have been struggling this month with fatigue, pain, and mood swings. This is probably multiple factors in play. I was diagnosed with RRMS in 2015, and I am 56 years old. I feel like I have Fibromyalgia also. August I started a new DMT. If anyone has been in Zeposia I will appreciate some feedback on how it works for you

Feedback on the Rollz Electric Walker/wheelchair

So I have been using this for about 3 months although bought it about 10months ago. Reason for this was it proved to be too heavy and awkward to get into our Audi Q3. So changed car to Honda CRV and got hoist installed. It is still awkward to get into car even with hoist but just takes practice. I...
