Hi! my name is Kim. I have had MS since 2013. Looking for some insight on how to live healthy with MS. If anyone can give me advise on who to talk to get to be healthy and what to eat and what exercises should be done.
I heard that cutting down on/cutting meat out of your diet can slow the progression of MS. Has anyone found that it's helped their symptoms at all please?
Legit willing to try anything at the moment 😂🤞🏻

My experience of using cannabis as an alternative to using prescribed drugs to aid my MS symptoms.
Having been diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis in April 2004, I have gone through Relapsing Remitting (RRMS), Secondary Progressive (SPMS) and now for the past couple of years find myself at the Prim...
So….
I saw the neuro and have just received ‘the letter’.
It says… “Possible sensory cervical transverse myelitis? …demyelination. I am awaiting an appointment for MRI’s on brain and c spine. Most of the tests he carried out seemed to not turn up any negative results. It says that the lower limb exa...
Morning all! Hope you are well. So as u may or may not know I am a qualified nutritionist. I have set up my own website and work at 2 clinics in London. I do also do skype consultations. Diet and healthy living is extremely important for everyone but especially when you have a condition like ours. A...
Hi, I have mobility issues- I struggle to walk. I have had MS for 7.5 years. I was washing up this morning, I turned around (not fast as my legs don't allow) and the next thing, my husband is picking me up from the floor. He said I didn't shout out, I just went down with my eyes open. I didn't respo...
Switching to Tecfidera after getting off avonex this weekend and was wondering if I can lay out in the sun. I heard that a lot of sun is not good for you when you have MS. As with avonox I was to drink lots of water, stay hydrated. Do I need to do that as well with tecfidera?
I've not had a drink in a while, I had a blow out the other week.. I feel it's really set me back even over a week later, I know it can cause internal damage brain shrinkage. I don't like the hangovers or really going out. I'd rather do something in the day time. Think my clubbing days are over, but...
To the people on here using wheelchairs, please can I ask you when did you know that was the time?
I just did a trip to my local shop… a 10 min slow walk. I recently bought a walking stick to help me balance as my right leg is the weaker one. But todays trip I really really struggled with. Kept ha...

Last night i got introduced to the RADAR key which is used to unlock accessible bathrooms in the UK and is frequently used in stadiums and other large venues. Very useful if your bladder and bowels are as anarchic as... mine.
Has anyone had experience with these, at a fiver this seems a good invest...
Hey folks I started on Tysabri infusions. At the beginning of June. Literally, within 2 days I was like a new person. My cog fog pretty much vanished, my cognitive processing was sharp and my fatigue was gone! I completed things that I pretty much gave up any hope of doing. I was mindful though tha...
I'm still going through all the diagnosis, so I don't know which form of MS I have just yet. I have had quite a whirlwind of 2 weeks, I went to the Dr's complaining of numbness and tingling in my right leg, completely expecting him to say I've over done it mowing the lawn and to take some painkille...
I was struck down a week ago with a lung infection. Boy it sucks! I can barely breathe and to make matters worse my GP gave me cortisone, like it's the miracle cure for everything under the goddamn sun.
I have the shakes, the sour taste in my mouth, the acne on my neck, everything...
I battle with s...
Hi everyone, I really noticed when socialising later in the day (between 5-6pm) I really struggled cognitively. I found it hard to understand what others were saying or follow conversation. Anyone else find they find this? Thanks everyone.
So recently I've fallen over a LOT. Ironically the one time I don't think it was related to me being a klutz/having footdrop is in February when I slipped in some mud and fractured my wrist. However, friends/family etc are determined to put everything down to my MS.
My question is, I don't have any...
What dosage of vitamin D are we supposed to take? I think my prescribed dose of 1000 may be too low but I'm not sure. I also take vitamin C, multivitamins with minerals, cod liver oil and magnesium tablets. What vitamins do you take?
