New guide for choosing DMTs

So, I see a lot of questions on this board about choosing a DMT or switching. Given that there are over 20 different options right now, it can feel a lot like cramming for the final in Your Future Is at Stake 101. The good news? The Multiple Sclerosis Association of America just launched The MSAA Tr...

We are thinking a care home in the long term, but we can't find anywhere w...

Where do I start. I work 3 days a week. 7am to 3pm. I stand all day packing veg in a packhouse. I'm the only one with a 'health condition'. We have stools to sit on because I asked for one as my legs are in constant pain. If it's not my legs, it's my hips. The pain is that bad that sometimes i could...

Severe stomach pain

Has anyone else experienced severe abdominal pain requiring you to go to hospital? I’ve had a lot of tests and even surgery to find out the problem but nothing is coming back. I was just wondering has anyone else ever experienced this type of issue: severe bloating, inability to eat, nausea, vomitin...

Depressive state, headaches and falls

Hi all. I guess these is a bit of venting out. Would also like to know if you have similar experiences. Sometimes I have headaches, but they don't feel like common headaches.

Falling and laughing?

I have RRMS. I work full time. I do always feel imbalanced and ungainly. I cope. I was at a Christmas meet up with friends on Friday. I fell off one of those bar stools onto the floor. It wasn’t painful or anything. I wasn’t even embarrassed. I’m just really, really frustrated with myself. When you ...
