You have to change your lifestyle with multiple sclerosis. First from school or from work, as soon as you get back home, just don't take a shower, take note you're tired, you have to stop and rest for about two hours, let your body rest. Next the myelin sheet or that covering on the neurons /roots is being deteriorated, basically your deficient on Vitamin b12. Don't abuse your body on work. Rest! MS is just a stress from your own lifestyle. I have multiple sclerosis, but I'm moving on. I take USANA food supplements with Vitamin b12.

My multiple sclerosis doctor has not seen this, so help me out. 27 years ago I was diagnosed with MS due to an vision issue and tingling. This lasted only weeks...nothing for all these years and then over the past 13 months I have had increased facial nerve problems...eye lid doesn't close, facial muscles not working on the left side, can't smile, unable to raise left eye brow. I look like I had a stroke!

I was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis in December 2009. The only symptoms that I have are tingling feet and hot/cold sensations on my legs. I still exercise daily and do not have issues with heat or fatigue. I have not started any type of DMDs (medications). I have only had one relapse that required steriods since my diagnosis.

My Multiple Sclerosis symptoms are: pain that started from the side of my knee to my foot. X-Ray showed a disc leaning on a nerve. I was in therapy for 3 1/2 months before my therapist discovered foot drop (or drop foot). I called my primary and requested a MRI. Primary told me I do not have MS, but when I asked how he can be sure, he dismisses my symptoms, which are blurred vision, drop foot, weakness in leg. I also seem to have some memory issues. I realize I am elderly, but all of these symptoms occurred following the incident. I am still having symptoms (except no pain) one year later.

I am current on the usual suspects for multiple sclerosis: muscle relaxants, SSRIs, pain medications, Porvigil, Ditropan, and Gabapintin. For 5 years I was on daily injections of Copaxone. I changed physicians and was taken off Copaxone. I haven't felt the same since.

In 2006 I was diagnosed with MS. I had 4 lesions, I underwent the 4 days of solumedral. I had EMG's done. Never did the Dr. order me MS meds. I saw 3 doctors about this. Now after 4 years they tell me I do not have it. I am so frustrated that I have no trust for the medical profession. I worked in the medical profession for over 30 years and I am treated like a second class patient.

I am a 64 year old female, diagnosed in 2001. Came on all of a sudden in 1999. Was not able to go back to work. Tried every shot available, all made me sick. Then in 2009 went on Tysabri (please read all side effects before taking, then you decide). I took nine infusions, then stopped, felt like it was slowly killing me. It progressed my MS more in nine months than I had in the previous 10 years. All medications out there are for Relapsing which I do not have. Maybe someday they will find a medicine for the percentage of people who do not have RAR.

The best thing you can do for yourself is have a good attitude. Even when you feel you cannot. My entire left side melts when stress is apparent. I was diagnosed 22 years ago. You might have MS, but don't let it have you.
