I’ve always been thankful that if I had to get an autoimmune disease, I’d sure rather have MS than ALS.

Hello, liked the content. I noticed all the things you did, how people look at you, parking problems, etc. When I started using a wheelchair I was approached by 2 people trying to find out if I had pain pills, seriously. Since using a wheelchair, pain and fatigue are rare. I recognize that I could be worse and am the kind of person that if worse comes then I am grateful for the time I have had. Take care

Thank you! I can’t believe people asked you for pills! Wow. We only have a back license plate and I was getting into the car and this lady starts yelling at me for not being disabled. She couldn’t see my legs, just assumed because of the way I look that I am not disabled. SMH

I had a tumor in my left breast 38 years ago. I am now in my late 60's. I also had cervical dysplasia. I treated my breast daily with camphor oil and the lump disappeared before my treatment. I changed my diet and took high doses of antioxidants and vitamin D. I still have my uterus and the the dysplasia went away as well.

Wow that’s great. What is camphor oil?

Hello Sara, your videos are so honest, sincere, heartfelt and inspiring. We are all on individual journeys and yet collectively we have a voice. The indifference out there can be deafening and often sole destroying but we are never alone as we have one another. Wishing you all the best...

Have been wondering if there's a connection myself...I was diagnosed with a rare sarcoma in April 2022 and then MS in December 2022.

@SaraslivingwithMS Жыл бұрын

Yes there needs to be more research i this. There could be something done early to prevent all of this.

I have a similar story of ocrevus and breast cancer. Did you go back to ocrevus after the cancer?

@SaraslivingwithMS 7 ай бұрын

No I did not go back to it and sorry I haven’t responded but if you see my latest show that’s the reason why, I have brain cancer now

i wonder if ms can actually give you more protection against cancer since your immune system is more aggressive but once you get on a DMT it weakens the immune system and increases cancer risk but what can you do you either let MS run rampant and destroy your cns or take a dmt and have a small chance of getting cancer. I am currently in limbo i think i have ms but not 100% sure yet but something i notice is i havent had so much as a common cold in atleast 6 or 7 years... that doesnt seem normal to me most people get a cold atleast once per year i wonder if thats what most people experience before their diagnosis.

@SaraslivingwithMS Жыл бұрын

Why do you think you might have MS? What are your symptoms? I am not sure if not having a cold has anything to do with it or not I have not heard that, but it does make sense. I know I had a virus of some sort bad cold, flu when I got the dark spot in my eye symptom. It’s as if getting an illness can bring out a symptom.

@@SaraslivingwithMS I think I have it because starting about 5 years ago i would get a weird weak sensation in my right leg without it actually being weak and it would fade away for a while then it seemed like slowly it worked its way up to my right arm, and then i started getting the pins and needles and numbness sensation in my right arm and leg and a weird vibration feeling in my right leg which ive actually a few times felt that in my left leg as well, but it always slowly fades away and i wont notice it for a while whether that be a week or a month or 2 months but it eventually will come back. So far i havent had any super drastic symptoms come up out of nowhere it always seems like it slowly comes over me. I have had an MRI of my brain about 2 years ago and it was clean but they never did a mri of my spine so in a few weeks im going back to get a brain and spine scan so im hoping to either rule it out or finally get a diagnosis so i can get on some treatment. Something I notice is when im stressing out super hard at work its like that pins and needles/weakness sensation will like flare up its so strange but then it will fade away when i calm down. All of my symptoms i noticed started not long after i had a root canal go bad and get abscessed and i always wonder if that infection triggered it some how if i actually do have MS, i honestly dont know what else it could be but atleast my neurologist is getting the ball rolling hopefully. And thanks for your reply😀
