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

Hello! Got my diagnosis last month for RRMS and I'm deciding on treatment options at the minute. I'm very prone to cold sores and UTI's and I've been suggested Kesimpta or mavenclad. I know they both have increased risk of oral herpes and uti's so confused as to which to go for. Any advice would be appreciated. Thank you :)

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....

I felt numbness and pain in my hand, turns out it was ms. This was a few days ago. I have been told by my doctor that these days people can live relatively normal lives and that I don’t have to necessarily loose my mobility or cognitive functions. Still, I wanted to ask, what has been your experienc...

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?
