Question for anyone with MS or this symptom.... DOES ANYONE HAVE PROBLEMS WITH EXTREME BRAIN ZAPPERS THAT FEEL LIKE LIVE ELECTRICAL WIRES FOR HOURS, to the point that you feel like you're going out of your mind..... Also when talking the brain zappers intensify

What to do?? Hi, my name is Rose. I’m new to this app. I was diagnosed with Ms back in 2016. Since than I’ve tried two dmts. Gilenya and mavenclad since than. Gilenya gave me horrible rashes for four years before my neuro switched me to mavenclad. That medication was the absolute worst. I lost about half of my hair and had frequent heart palpitations to where I needed a heart monitor twice. I only did the first year round 1 and never followed up for my second because of fear. I am meeting with my neuro within the next month about starting a new medication. What is some options that he could give me? And what is your personal experience with those DMTS?

Has anyone’s doctors tried to find the cause of their MS? I think it’s bazaar that nobody cares what caused this in me, in the first place. No family history.

Hi all. I’m new to this app. I’m 26 years old and have been diagnosed since the age of 18. My MS nurse has said I have one of the most aggressive cases she’s ever seen, which doesn’t bother me personally, I live life as “it is what it is” what I’m wondering is does anyone have plans for future life when it gets worse? For me my plan is when I feel I can’t live a good quality of life I will happily just end my life. I hope it doesn’t get to that point but I am prepared for it. What’s everyone else’s plans? .

I’m reading the health comments and how is that skunk weed marijuana are supposedly coming from Mexico in every country around the world I don’t believe that Mexico was shipping it to every country around the world is this government I’m just curious cause it seems like that would be a government thing but then why them that would be horribly shameful and how does some countries have it illegal although it’s being shipped in is that fair to punish the people for what they get? I don’t believe it is it should be legal around the world if they’re shipping it around the world shouldn’t it? Especially when it’s a lot of people with health problems using it diabetes, a lot of autoimmune disorders lotta stomach problems and it’s kind of weird how it’s so helpful and yet the government uses it to punish people it makes no sense?

I got diagnosed four years ago. This is the first time I’m talking to anybody outside of my family, but I still feel like I can get more information if anybody has any tips or any helpful ways to help me deal with the daily fatigue and lack of energy. It’d be much appreciated.

Hi everyone , new to this , just joined today. First diagnosed in 2008, managed well until about 4 years ago. Most recently this awful disease is trying to take my legs and I just need people to talk to who understand how soul destroying it can be to be honest. Talking to friends and family helps but they don’t understand , no matter how much they try to 😥.
