Omg YES!!!!

It’s not the answer, but offers several benefits to so many!

Millie Hobson I have progressive M.S. and all of the above you have mentioned applys to myself. xx

Yes, Debbie... That is what I am talking about... People who have Progressive forms of MS... Since these forms are rarer forms, they are rarely represented to the public... My husband has PRMS, and has progressed rapidly, even with his medications and, yes, exercise through physical therapy... Despite dietary changes, supplements, exercise, he has progressed to spasms whenever he tries to use the muscles in his legs... So, he is in a temporary wheelchair... Waiting for a permanent fitted wheelchair.... So, now, he can only exercise his legs from his chair... Until they spasm... And his arms... Until the tremors set in..... Keep trying, Debbie... Don't ever give up trying... I just felt like someone who is dealing with these worsening symptoms of Progressive Multiple Sclerosis should let people know that life with this disease is not as easy for everyone.... This disease that people say is a hidden disease... For some, is not hidden at all.....

Thanks so much Millie for your reply, I'm much the same as you husband, I try every day, with me it's not hidden, I use a walking frame at the moment, but feel like I will be in a wheelchair very soon, :( xx

Hey !!!! I don't know how much I can be of help at this point ! I have it to ! Just recently diagnosed with it last year ! Have you looked up LDN ! If not please do

Thank you Keyairra, I will look that up!! Any help is appreciated! 😊💖

You are so right i just told my wife maybe a cane but i am determined never to end up in a wheel chair. I just turned 48 and have had ms in my early 20s😎

man-made disease modifying medications are a no-go. I don't take them either. fruits and vegetables all the way

How are you doing now

How are you doing? What diet are you following?

@cool black How are you doing now?

Yes 🙌 you are here me too No complaints I’m Thankful 🥹 Blessings Brother 😌

Terrance Hill Thxs for this. I’ve had my first round of Ocrevus and still having symptoms so praying the second one will have me completely back to normal. 🧡💪🏽

Montel partially owns a dispensary in Sackotomatoes, CA, which hits triple digit temperatures in the Summer, which obscenely bites for people who have MS. Some decent people transported me to SF, which has more and better dispensaries, and *just* reached its yearly high temps of low 80s. Oh, how I miss what I had and despise what what I now have. =|

Rawest form. Stupid autocorrect. LOL.

You are doing great, press forward. ❤️

SLaRee333. HAVE TO WRITE IN CAPS AS IAM LEGALLY BLIND. WITH THAT SAID I AGREE WITH WHAT UR SAYING ABOUT THIS HORRIFIC DISEASE.. AT AGE 26 I BROKE MY LEFT FOOT VERY BADLY IN 5 PLACES, I KNEW VERY QUICKLY THAT SOMETHING WAS REALLY WRONG. APPROX. 1 YR. LATER I WENT TO AN ORTHOPEDIC SURGEON WHO KNEW IMMEDIATELY THAT I HAD (C.R.P.S) COMPLEX REGIONAL PAIN SYNDROME) A SEVERE NERVE DAMAGING DISEASE THAT SPREADS KILLING OFF BODY PARTS AS IT PROGRESSES, THIS DISEASE IS THE MOST PAINFUL CHRONIC PAIN CONDITION IN THE WORLD. ANYHOW I STARTED THE ENDLESS DR. APPT'S,, TESTS, AND. LOTS OF MEDS.- ABOUT 4-5 MONTHS INTO THAT LIVING HELL, I WAS THEN ADDITIONALLY DIAGNOSED WITH M.S/FIBROMYALGIA/ LUPUS AND MUCH MORE TO COME. ONE THING THAT MY ILLNESSES HAD/HAVE IN COMMON IS THAT THEIR SYMPTOMS ALL MIMMIC ONE ANOTHER.. SINCE THE FIRST DAY WITH M.S I HAVE NEVER GONE INTO REMISSION, IVE ALWAYS RUN A WICKED HIGH FEVER, THAT PAIN WHERE YOU CAN NEVER EXPLAIN IT TO ANYBODY UNLESS THEY'VE BEEN THERE, IVE ALSO HAD THE PAIN SINCE THE ONSET OF C.R.P.S 24/7- I HONOSTLY CANNOT REMEMBER MY LIFE WITHOUT IT. I HAVE SEVERE INVOLUNTARY TREMORS, MUSCLE SPASM'S, BILATERAL FOOT DROP, MUSCLE. WEAKNESS, STABBING/BURNING/THROBBING/ SENSATIONS, TINGLING, NUMBNESS, TOTAL LOSS OF FEELING THRIUGHOUT MY BODY. MEMORY LOSS, LACK OF CONCENTRATION, SOMETIMES I STUTTER, IVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO REMEMBER MY OWN NAME, HOW TO SPELL AS WELL AS THE INABILITY TO MOVE MY HAND TO WRITE.LETS SEE.... UM CLUSTER HEADACHES, CHEST PAIN, TROUBLE SWALLOWING, GRAND MALL SEIZURES, DONT SLEEP FOR 8-11 DAYS/NIGHTS AT A CLIP AND OF COURSE TOTAL EXHAUSTION N FATIGUE. SO AS I SAID IN THE BEGINNING, I SO AGREE WITH UR COMMENTS. WE R ALL DIFFERENT AND WHAT WORKS FOR ONE MAY NOT ANOTHER. ALSO I BELIEVE ITS TRUE THAT ALOT OF US JUST CANNOT AFFORD TO EAT HEALTHY BECAUSE. WE SIMPLY CANNOT AFFORD IT. DOCTORS ARE ONLY GUESSING WHEN IT COMES TO OUR TREATMENTS. 26 YRS. INTO THESE ILLNESSES AND IVE TRIED MANY DIFFERENT APPROACHES- FOR ME, OPIATES, BENZO'S-FOR THE ANXIETY, MUSCLE RELAXERS, NEURONTIN, MULTI-VITAMINS, AND A WHOLE LOT OF CRYING. I WISH YOU ALL THE VERY BEST. THANK YOU

There are food pantries and churches that give veggies. A cucumber, a bag of carrots and celery are very cheap. You start somewhere.

I agree that everyone’s situation is different. I’m glad it worked for him well to walk and to eat fruit and vegetables. But not only everyone can’t afford it, not everyone can walk or can eat fruits without issues. I have Mast cell activation syndrome. I also a genetic problem with connective tissue (hEDS) So I have to be on low histamine diet, many of those fruits can trigger my allergic reactions. Also, my vein compression syndromes has put me into misery with eating. I have a hard time to barely eat 1/3 of a normal size meal without having excruciating pain in my abdomen. So eating fruits and veggies in large quantities aren’t possible for me even to sustain a healthy weight. Healthcare has never been one shoe fits all kind of situation. We are all individual with different genetic makeups.

I totally agree, cannabis aka marijuana is very useful medicinally and it definitely is underused & we all know why that is. I think that it is helpful in symptoms of MS and other diseases. It's already been proven to help cancer symptoms. There is a little boy alive because of a trial involving marijuana, he's in total remission. I'm not saying smoke it and it's a cure for cancer, etc...but it could be...possibly, if it is researched properly, who knows?

I agree but I'm afraid 2 try it. I found out that o had MS at age 27 in 2007. I lost my mind. I didn't no what it was I'm like oh no does my child have as well. I just had the tingling in my lower legs and numbness. One doctor I saw before I went 2 the emergency room just gave me a steriod. I've tried tysabri and it was great. Just hated the fact that I had no immune system. I've done the research and it's only one thing we need from cannibas and that's tch. My sister in law is a doctor so I asked her. But doctors don't ask us if we would like to try it. It's a natural plant. Man added things 2 it and made it more than it needed to be.

RARE GEM Don't be afraid to try it. You don't have to smoke it, so you don't get the stoned feeling. Great muscle relaxant's. Need to watch the edibles. To much, and you will get stoned.

I have every intention of looking into it, once the final results are in. I want edibles, and will be careful about getting stoned. My whole left side is screwed up..very weak, and would like to start running again. But right now, walking is dodgy. And it hurts!!

I'm using. I live in CO. I use a lot of the CBN's and such. Much better than pain pills.

Yes I walk and sit lol weakness and tired comes but I do a little a time. I move as if there is nothing that changed and is work with Mental Health. I will not stop. Keep going everyone and be strong

How are you doing now, Sharon?

+Thalia Ventouris me either #fums

He promoted Sylvia Browne, that is why he is a fraud,

John Bodnar Ya know John this has nothing to do with *Sylvia Brown*. Wise Up and stop being a PINHEAD!!!!!!!!

Celeste Dommer All psychics are frauds if they take money.

That may be true. I have no *Factual Statistics* to confirm. On that note ~ The subject matter is not about weather *Sylvia Brown* is a *Fraud*. More likely than not she is but *Montel* is talking about *MS ~ Multiple Sclerosis.* *God Bless*

RoseHe promoted that fraud for years , that is why he lost all credibility.People lost thousands on Sylvia.Thank God Anderson Cooper called he out.

He said coconut water, not milk

Jill Whaley I realized that. Doesn't matter what you eat, how much sun you get, how much exercise you can get or how tough you are, it comes and goes when it pleases.

Eating does actually help.My ms is really progressive which really sucks. I switched to the paleo diet and it did help a lot because there was one week I didn't eat right and I felt horrible. I definitely saw the difference from not eating right to sticking to a healthy diet because of My ms.

Juliann Mladineo What i'm saying is it hasn't been proven scientifically. The paleo diet and all other diets haven't been demonstrated to be scientifically better then anything else. Of course eating a special diet is going to be better then junk food.

+Harden Thicke what medication does he take?

+77Avadon77 The right diet makes a HUGE difference. And if you don't use it, you like it, so exercise hugely important as well. He's right about fruits and vegetables.

Your friends are sad people. You will be a very caring and compassionate person because of what you have seen and lived with. I bet you are a big help to your dad. Dad's can feel like failures when they get knocked down medically. They desire to be strong for their families and good providers. They want to be their little girls hero.

Thank you for your kind words it really helps I have removed myself from that situation and it has gotten better

I am happy to hear that you are doing better. It is a long and difficult and challenging road.

true

YEP!!

I believe I heard somewhere that he has RRMS.

Copaxone is the only daily injection for MS. Copaxone is the only drug old enough for his story.

If a drug stops you from having relapses, it's doing its job! The MS drugs aren't for making you better. They are just for hopefully reducing the number of and shortening the length of relapses. So if it totally stops them for you, that's amazing and wonderful!

LYNN JOHNSON.... i understand your position.. I just woke up wrong a year ago and my life has changed drastically. i will pray for you. please stay strong through the pain.

LYNN JOHNSON look into HSCT for MS patients in Chicago.

Ironically, lack of vitamin D and B12 are present in hypothyroid patients. It's amazing the exact symptoms of MS and Hypothroidism: Fatigue, ( that swimming with a coat on feeling ) weakness, feeling like the flu 24/7, balance issues, etc.

I dont have lack of vitamin d or b12, and has ms
