What to do?? Hi, my name is Rose. I’m new to this app. I was diagnosed with Ms back in 2016. Since than I’ve tried two dmts. Gilenya and mavenclad since than. Gilenya gave me horrible rashes for four years before my neuro switched me to mavenclad. That medication was the absolute worst. I lost about half of my hair and had frequent heart palpitations to where I needed a heart monitor twice. I only did the first year round 1 and never followed up for my second because of fear. I am meeting with my neuro within the next month about starting a new medication. What is some options that he could give me? And what is your personal experience with those DMTS?

Hi, I’m Todd. I was diagnosed 22 years ago at the age of 36. That’s right, I’m 58 and I don’t like it! I don’t look my age and I certainly don’t feel it. I play guitar, and I think it’s a big reason I stay young at heart. Nice to see that there’s a group for support, and general togetherness as a community of common life for us with MS. God Bless!

Diagnoised and living with with MS for 12 yrs. Every since I have been diagnosed, Every weird issue that I have had, nobody can figure out what's wrong until I remember that I have MS, i start researching symptoms and it is MS related. Last year I was having fainting spells and the cardiologist says it's not my heart. I researched and it is MS related, I have been getting dizzy on a daily basis. It is so frustrating that Every issue that I have is MS related. Ugh

Sharp pain in the heart area of my chest

Hey... I've had a sharp pain in my heart/heart area of my chest for the past couple of days... today it's bothering me at work a lot... Wondering if it is MS related or (shocker) COVID vaccine related? maybe it'll go away if it's MS, but should I worry? It feels like a squeeze on my heart, and some...
