Not sure if my initial post was shared so I'm trying again. Hello. I'm new here. My question is can a definitive diagnosis for MS be done "without" a spinal tap?! I refuse to let any doctor in my spine after a botched spinal surgery. I appreciate any feedback. Have a wonderful day ❤️🌹❤️

Greetings everyone, I am a 63 year old mom to a 36 year old son diagnosed with MS in May of this year. In July my son lost all his abilities to function in every way. He was in the hospital for three months and now he's in rehab learning to walk, talk, and everything else that this demon disease took from him. We have a long road ahead of us and I have so much to learn about MS I'm terrified but I know that everything is possible with God. In July I was told that my son would never speak or walk again, but now he's speaking clear enough to understand him and walking plus feeding himself. I'm praying for everyone in this community and looking forward to making new friends. God Bless you all.🙏♥️🙏⚘️👌🏻

Advice and feedback

So I've had MS for 10 years and these past 3 months I've had 8 falls the most I've had in 10 years. I don't think i have relapsed, I think I have just lost my balance because before the 3 months of falling over I did notice that a few months back before the falls I was holding onto stuff so I could ...

Started the Tecfidera last Thursday. Don’t really feel a difference yet. But hopefully it will kick in once I go up to the 240mg. Anyone else on this and have feedback?

The whole sign in process is crap. Entering your email to then wait for an email (which you then have exit the browser or sign in on a PC) for a link to then be asked to enter your email in again. Why is it so long winded!
