Hello all. An update on my adventures in the land of myelin repair clinical trials: I started a new one this week. This one is called Taurus 2 and uses electrical stimulation of the brain (external, painless) for 15 minutes a day for 20 days to try to get the oligodendrocytes moving. They're a type ...

As of next Monday, no more drugs for me (and yes, i've definitely been on active not control for the past ~1 year). This feels like it's been working. I had neuropathy, th...

Did you know: A new study has discovered a specific gene plays a major role in myelin repair becoming less effective as we age. Why do our brains stop repairing myelin as we get older? MS researchers started unravelling what causes this - find out more: http://mssoc.uk/3qSCJAE

We should always find something positive to post on a Monday ;-) I like all the studies on ways to repair MS damage or prevent it. https://multiplesclerosisnewstoday.com/2018/02/16/inhibiting-enzyme-myelin-damage-multiple-sclerosis/?utm_content=buffera20c2&utm_medium=organic+social&utm_sour...
