Health

Just a random question. Does anybody suffer from paper-thin skin that even with the slightest touch seems to peel away? I don't know if this is Multiple Sclerosis related or not. However, it's problematic. My legs have a lot of scarring all over them.

Women’s health and MS

Anyone else struggling with adenomyosis and how it impacts/exacebates their MS symptoms? If this is something you can relate to, I’d love to hear what symptoms you find most debilitating and how, if at all, you are managing this?

Anyone done this since being diagnosed? I got results that I had poor blood sugar, poor gut microbiome (which is interesting as there’s research into gut microbiome and MS) but good blood fat. I’ve taken it all with a pinch of salt because I know it’s a business. I have stopped my membership now but...

Hi everyone, I recently moved to the USA and have been using Copaxone since 2013. I've started living in Massachusetts and I'm unfamiliar with the healthcare system here. How do I get my medication? If anyone has information about the whole process, could you please message me? Thank you.

Dizzy today, gentlemen. I had a breakfast meeting this morning with a group of friends called ROMEO. That stands for Retired Old Men Eating Out. It was pleasant conversation about… Well, essentially about nothing. We vaguely discussed how we were feeling, how our wives or partners were doing and plans for our future. Some of us are afraid to actually make any plans that might cost money because their health is not so great. I am not like that! I make plans to keep myself happy with something to look forward to! I’m excited about two upcoming events! One is going with my wife (a woman I still call my beautiful bride after 30 years of marriage, to New York City to see my favorite band of all time in concert one last time. The two surviving original members of Rush are both 75 years old now and are doing one last tour. I’m seeing their next to last performance ever, as the next show after NYC is in their home town of Toronto. Then, a couple weeks after that, I’m going with that same amazing wife I mentioned on a cruise along the coast of Italy. We have the opportunity to attend a Sunday mass at The Vatican and hear a sermon by the new Pope. Now, my beautiful bride and I are both Jewish, but her best friend and her new husband (her second marriage is a huge upgrade from her first one! Are both catholic. They are both excited for the cruise but the opportunity to actually attend a Sunday mass in Vatican City and hear a sermon delivered by the leader of Catholism world wide is a once in a lifetime opportunity, even for me as a Jewish man. I’m excited to take our friends on their first cruise (its the first time leaving Indiana for the guy we are taking with us, and he is very excited and has been quite appreciative..

Health or home what would you choose?

I have MS. I am still working full time. I do not have a lot of income. I normally pour everything I have into the house hold because I do not want to loose our house. Both my husband and son are on disability. I have to cancel all of my doctors appointments because there are no funds available for ...
