I think I suffer from SAD...seasonal affect depression. I'm loving the weather so far. I get up most days and go for a walk it really does help with the fatigue, mental health issues and overall mood. How are you guys.

Disc Bulge

Hello All, I have PPMS - I think at least five or six years but diagnosed just over two. An MRI around three months ago showed a disc bulge on L4/5 which causes regular pain - especially in night/mornings and weakness on that side (right) and thus mobility and balance issues. I know three non-MS fri...

I've been experiencing what I think is nerve pain for a week. My skin hurts all over, feels like when you have a sunburn. Barely touching my skin is painful. I'm scared. Is this a flare up?

I lost all hope I’m feeling lonely but I lost all confidence in myself with my eyes. No job, no money, can’t drive, live with my parents I don’t have much to offer. Sometimes I look at myself in the mirror or pictures n I think I look so ugly with my eyes.

Thoughts on diet, Whal’s Protocol

Hi all, I am new here. I was diagnosed 3 years ago. I take teriflunomide but my first inclination was to try to combat symptoms with food. I heard about Dr. Terry Whal’s story and the diet and decided to dive in. I bought the book and her recipe book and it sat on my desk for about 4 months. I...

How often do you get an MRI of your spine?

Just wondering how often you get an MRI of your spine done? I still don’t have a diagnosis of MS but as the years go on, new symptoms seem to appear. I had an MRI of my full spine back in 2021 but didn’t have any lesions there, only my brain. That was prior to my leg becoming as weak as it is now....
