Looking for
something specific?

I’ve been recently diagnosed with RRMS. I am overweight and really would like to lose some before having ACL surgery (no date yet) but I’m really struggling. I also have PCOS - I wondered if anyone has any experience of living with the two conditions? I feel as though my hormones are all over the ...

Hello, appreciate this is a bit of a niche post but worth asking I figure! Diagnosed with RRMS in 2020. On ocrevus for 1 year and latest MRI showed no disease progression. Generally my disease is under control (touch wood). I've just had a another (3rd) round of IVF due to unexplained infertility. ...

Hi Everyone, Quite new here, my journey to my MS diagnosis was quite a lengthy one. I started showing symptoms just after my 21st birthday in 2014, however finally got my diagnosis in Feb this year.

Not exactly the romantic pictur...

Dear MS community, I have only been diagnosed with MS in January this year but have had 4, possibly 5 relapses (mild ones) already and my neuro says I'd be a good candidate for Campath. I'm going to be 29 in December and I know it's silly but my biological clock is TICKING like hell. My MS nurse ...

I'm wondering if any men have experienced fertility issues? I'm on Ocrevus and wondering if the drug (or MS in general) can affect my sperm count/motility. Was it harder to conceive or were you even able to get your girlfriends/wives pregnant at all?

Fertility, contraception, pregnancy, symptoms, relapses, treatment… with MS, family planning isn’t a simple ‘yes’ or ‘no’ decision, there are a lot of moving parts. “We limit ourselves.
