So…had a swallow study done today. It showed Oropharyngeal dysphagia. It explains some things I’ve been experiencing. Neurologist and SLP want to see me. I’m 59 years old in a few weeks and have PPMS. Thoughts? Cause for concern or not a big deal?

Just signed up here. I was diagnosed last fall and started on Tysabri in Dec. So far it’s been really good. My symptoms have gotten better (which no one promised me). Lately, some things have gotten worse. Life has been stressful recently and I know that can cause relapses. I’m curious how everyone managed their stress level.

Time to lawyer up?

After a 35-year remission, my MS relapsed in early April. I scheduled an appointment with a neurologist, but the earliest available was weeks away. In the meantime, I reached out to my PCP, who immediately set me up for a three-day Solu-Medrol infusion. I told him that’s what had worked best for me ...

Anyone else on Zoloft having issues with regulating body temperature? I’ve been on it for a few months now and I seem to be overheating more than usual and not being able to cool down and then fatigue gets so much worse.

Normal temperatures at last

The heatwave is ending at last. A drop of 9 degrees C here and wow what a difference it makes. So much more awake and able to get up and actually do something....until the tizanidine starts wearing off anyway. It's still so shocking how much difference the ambient temperatures make now. I used to ...
