Confusing energy

Hi all. I am so confused, in a good way I guess but still... I have been feeling absolutely awful all year. I ignored the signs for too long which resulted in me reaching breaking point in October and I had to stop work. I've been working really, really hard to get better and I am definitely miles ...

COVID Treatments

Interesting post from the MS Society today about the new antiviral/antibody treatment proposals for people in the UK with MS who contract COVID19. Apparently we'll get a PCR testing kit to keep at home and then be offered treatment if we're COVID positive. I had COVID in April 2020 and was lucky...

When diagnosed my neurologist advised that I was in the mild scale and...

Latest on Ocrevus and Covid-19

Great news for some of us - me included - is that (from a group of neuros on Twitter) at least one of them has an ocrelizumab patient that is normally sick, they haven't deteriorated into an immunosuppressive mess. One Swallow does not make a summer, but it is hard to get hands on any news of DMT ...

Service dog

Hi I have great news, I’m going to be evaluated for a service dog in August and hopefully I’ll be approved. I think it’d be a great help with my balance trouble and even just keeping me active.

Good news

Went to see my neuro and go over my latest mri. He diagnosed highly aggressive rrms and prescribed lemtrada because it was so aggressive that it could have killed me. The latest mri didn't have any new lesions and some of the old ones are healing. This was great news to me and its only been 7 months...
