BeechBand - anyone try?

I’ve seen this on Facebook so I thought I’d give it a go. Anyone tried it? BTW, I’m not trying to promote, so if this breaks rules please remove.

I have the shakes and my hands keep jerking and I can hardly hold anything in my hands. My eyes won’t focus when I’m trying to read stuff. It’s been like this for almost two weeks now. My neurologist put me on some prednisone 50 mg, I have to take 10 pills twice daily. Why does it take doctors or nurses to get back intouch with you through the patient portal? My neurologist office is the only one that takes the longest to get back in touch with me.

Ramification of torticollis nonsense and what happens when you have side effects with botox . After my latest round of Botox that I have every 3 months to deal with the torticollis new nonsense I now am choking every time I try to swallow something or God forbid eat something. This is not the diet plan I was looking for 🤦 I called the MS center for some advice on swallowing or rather navigating the new nonsense and then cold a different neurologist to try to get a second opinion. Of course I can't be seen until freaking August. No I don't want to go to the emergency room it's not an emergency simply going to the emergency room cost more money than my God damn mortgage. Luckily if I eat small bites of tiny things I'm able to choke down some food and cream of wheat works but damn it not cool. On the other hand my husband made a really cool attachment to a scooter we have so that we can hook my Walker onto it so that when we go on vacation I can take the walker with me at the beach when we drive around. It's the little things I'm such a lucky woman to have such a fabulous husband 🤩 and yes attitude is everything do what you can how you can when you can and everything else can f*** off 🤣

Hello. So just got diagnosed with MS after a 2 week stay in the hospital at the end of April. And the last 2 weeks on both arms in my elbow area at pretty numb to the touch and my left arm hurts when I try and pick something up. Not sure if it's related or not. Have to set up a appointment with neurology after I get a referral from my PCP which I'm getting on Thursday afternoon!!!

Hi, I got diagnosed in January and started on medication after a very long wait about a month ago, unfortunately I had a very severe reaction to copaxone....I need to start another treatment however it's limited what I can take due to the fact me and my partner are trying for another baby just wondering what anyone else is or has taken whilst trying to conceive? My ms nurse keeps trying to push the infusion but due to the severe reaction I had after only 4 jabs I don't fancy 6 months worth at a time going into my body. Thanks for reading

Hi there! I know numbness is an MS thing. I’m trying to determine if what I’ve am experiencing comes from MS or something that needs a chiropractor. The numbness only happens when I’m walking around for more than twenty minutes. I’d love to hear your thoughts. BTW it just in my upper left leg.
