Drugs that are prescribed willy-nilly to PWms

How safe and thought through are they? Some drugs are given out with little thought for their wider effects on us. Another great post from the MS-Selfie. Gavin is super kind because if you can't afford a subscription just say and he'll let you follow for free. https://gavingiovannoni.substack.com...

Help with managing fatigue resources

Hello! I'm newly diagnosed and my worst symptom is profound fatigue. I understand why it's the most common reason pwMS stop working. Does anyone know of any good courses to take on managing fatigue, pacing, etc in MS? Or other good resources? Thanks
