Looking for
something specific?

Hi everyone I'm new here. I dont know where to start! I'm 44 female. Was admitted to hospital in April with whole left sided numbness. First MRI I've ever had showed muliple lesions on my brain and lumbar puncture confirmed pattern 2 banding. Waited a while to see neurologist who was quite dismis...

Hello! Is anyone on an antidepressant for MS? I have bad, uncontrollable anxiety when I am unwell with my MS and I also have bad nerve pains in my limbs. I’ve heard of a low level antidepressant being described for people with MS in both of these cases. I would find it very useful if anyone could sh...

I’m currently waiting on my diagnosis, my neurologist app is later this month. I’ve been seen by a few Doctors over the last 3 months, my MRI shows numerous lesions and they’ve each said it looks like MS but until my lumbar puncture results are back they won’t fully diagnose me. I’ve recently rece...

I'm having an active flare up and have been placed on 500mg of methylprednisolone daily for 5 days, and am using paramol and tiger balm to try keep the pain at bay. I've been looking into CBD oil as I used to be a heavy cannabis user around 4 years ago, before my diagnosis was confirmed, and did fi...

I have been really forgetful lately and ironically it always happens on my “good days”. It’s becoming more noticeable lately and I’m getting a little worried.

After Mr Musk ruined Twitter, I’m here to find my old MS pals and gain some new ones. I was diagnosed six years ago, I’ve been on Ocrevus and now Kesimpta (which I don’t find helpful at all). I’m working on my PhD looking at foot and lower limb health in people with MS (I’m a Podiatrist). I’m here f...

I am having some serious cyst issues which I've just decided to rename cystues. 😂 Seriously though I have had issues with sebatous cysts popping up randomly on my neck low around my collar bones and in my armpits for about a decade now. Before I knew what they were I just used to drain them myself ...

I was just diagnosed in July. My first symptoms and lesions were in 2019 but I was in limbo until a lumbar puncture recently for diagnosis. Partly because symptoms overlap chronic migraine and FM which I have. So my neurologist was looking for something strictly MS. I did get drop foot but that wa...
