Positivity thread!

Hi everyone, I know that it just isn't possible to stay positive all the time in the face of MS, and we shouldn't be expected to, sometimes it's tough and we just need to let ourselves feel how we do in that moment. BUT I would really love it if from time to time we could all share something that w...

Tecfidera reviews wanted! Anyone else on this?

Just wondering if anyone else out there has made the switch to Tecfidera? I used to be on Copaxone but hated the needles so have switched to the pills! They're not going so well at the moment! I'm on week 3 and have terrible cramping in my stomach, nausea, headaches, bloating, indigestion and reflux...

I’m back

Doubt anyone remembers me but I’ve posted on here since 2016. Long story short but got CIS diagnosis in January 2017 and started on Rebif until December. Taken off due to low wbc meaning I couldn’t have elective surgery. Plan then was for 6 monthly mri/appointments and close monitoring. My case has ...

A small victory for the UK MSers

Afternoon all. Some may have seen that I decided to take the Railcard folks to task as their website for Disabled Railcards was opaque and led to many with MS thinking they weren't entitled to a Disabled Persons Railcard. Good News - anyone that can show they have MS - a letter from your GP is fin...

The joke section!

I was out clubbing last night, and saw a fat bloke chatting up a fat girl. She turned him down though. I think she was worried he was just trying to get into her Snickers.

We've got this...

It struck me this weekend that people with MS are actually probably particularly well equipped to deal with the coronavirus outbreak. Compared to the rest of the population, we are all used to: - Being stuck in limbo, nobody can ever tell us how long something will last and if it will be permanent,...

When were you born

My birthday is in April and I know a few ms'ers who were also born in the early spring (mothers pregnant during winter no summer sun low vitamin D) wonder how this fits with everyone on here. Cheers Chris.

Hey there :) I'm a 22-year old student from Germany and I've been diagnosed with MS in 2015. I've had two relapses until now but I recovered rather well. While I'd not been able to read even texts in German, I'm now able to work through English specialist literature again. Nevertheless, I'm tainted...
