I second this recommendation as Dr. Wahls lives here in my hometown of Iowa City, IA, USA and is highly regarded for her MS work. Please check out her website and consider attending her seminar in August. terrywahls.com/wahls-protocol-seminar-2017/

Speaking as a neurologist, please make sure you have been tested for a disease called neuromyelitis optica. This is a rare disease that is often mistaken for MS and has a different treatment approach, so it's an important distinction. It frequently presents with optic neuritis. I'm the type of viewer who never comments, but I would feel completely remiss if I didn't mention this. Best of luck in your journey. You should be applauded for your positive attitude!

researchick3 - can you have both at the same time? I only ask because Nic's tests came back positive for MS.

MsElle It would be incredibly rare (essentially impossible) to have these concurrently. While​ I don't know the specifics of her workup, the laboratory test most frequently performed to diagnose MS is nonspecific, meaning it can be positive in the setting of several related conditions. I have seen even neurologists forget to consider this alternative diagnosis. I make this suggestion so that Nic can discuss this possibility with her physician.

not related to nic but glad u commented this. brings awareness to rare diseases. another often misdiagnosed or thought to be MS is myalgic encephalomyelitis (wrongly labeled chronic fatigue syndrome also). MS gets the most attention and resources from these and many rare conditions are left unnoticed. this brave video brings awareness to MS wonderfullly too and strenght to those who have it like her.

My mom has MS and is living a very happy, healthy life. She has bad days, but instead of calling them bad, we call them Plan B days. I know how difficult it can be to feel like you're a burden in some ways on your family or to feel like your not the mother you want to be. As someone who is the child of a beautiful woman who has MS, I just want you to know that you're incredible. And your strength is astounding. And so inspiring. And it's okay to be physically tired sometimes, that doesn't make you weak. Your grace is astounding to us. ❤️

For people who don't know what MS is. Basically, there is a fatty tissue called Myelin which protects and insulates the nerve cells and allows them to conduct impulses quickly to parts of the body. MS is when this myelin breaks down, therefore, nerve cells can't conduct impulses effectively meaning the nervous system can't communicate properly and function well. Hope that helped.

I know how it feels to have a diagnosis of something that is hereditary, chronic, progressive.... and untreatable. I watch my children and my grandson in every move they make watching for signs. The disease population I am in contains a LOT of MS and Rheumatoid Arthritis as well as Fibromyalgia. I get brain fog - I love your brain mush! - I get where I can't swallow properly, currently I've been awake for over 24 hrs with a headache from a related issue in my neck but a new part of it is my eyeBALL hurting... With a diagnosis like these you never know what's coming next, right?! At any point it feels like the body we've known for years suddenly has a new personality and it's very grumpy. I just wanted to pop on and reach my zebra hoof across the pasture (it's a saying related to my disease, I can explain if you wish) and let you know that you are completely not alone, even when alone is all you feel. Never give up, never surrender!! :-)

You are so strong to post this. MS affects a lot of families and people. You speaking up can help raise awareness. Do not let it hold you back ever. My great aunt had MS and loved life and never seemed defeated. She was an inspiration to many by being an advocate and showing how you can live just as full of a life. Even when she was in a wheelchair it didn't hold her back. You have so much support and love coming towards you but you can help so many people with your platform! Just speaking will help people embrace it. Wear it with pride that you can speak about it and inspire people too. Show people it's not as scary as it seems everyday!! Keep going Norfolk air helps 💖💖💖

I am 22 and was diagnosed with relapsing remitting multiple schlerosis at 19. When I found out I really thought I was going to die from this. I thought I was going to be in a wheelchair and was never going to be able to walk or swim or do anything. I was so upset because I didnt know what it was. For a very common disease, a lot of people dont know what it is. Ive experienced MRI scans, lumber punctures, double vision, numbness and tingling from my chest down to the point where I could hardly walk. I was in and out of hospital for weeks and off work for months. I get clumsy with my hands and my brain get jumbly and I cant find the words for things but I manage. I take medication and I rest when my body tells me to and I try keep active and eat well. Sometimes I forget I have MS and then I do something and my body tells me that I need to slow down. I havent had a relapse in two years but I do experience a lot of fatique on a weekly basis. Despite all that you just have to live your life to the full

Never commented before. Just wanted to let you know I got MS to. Diagnosed at age 18 - my world crashed. But decided to grab myself all together. Graduated from university, got a job even though everyday I'm exhaused. A year ago my boyfried (who I was with for 8 years) broke up with me because he coudn't take it. Anyway what I wanted to tell is is that I always wanted to become a makeup artist but gave up on it because my hands are sometimes clumsy... Now I'm 26, today quited job. But you inspired me to try again. Tears fall down from my eyes but these are good ones.

I just want you to know that my Mom had MS from when I was a baby...she was an awesome, brilliant and kind woman who rarely told anyone because she had decided that it would not rule her life and giving it words gave it power (not sure if I agreed with her but it was her choice). Symptoms came and went and came and went for more than 50 years. but she just kept on. She was active and vibrant until she died last year, one month before her 90th birthday. I can only say that I hope you live as long (or longer) and as well. All good things to you,

Nic, I have been watching you and Sam since 2010. I was diagnosed with MS after a bout of optic neuritis in my left eye (I went totally blind) in 2013, I was 23-years-old. I'm crying because I was so scared at first and I spent probably a solid month just watching you guys while I was getting diagnosed, (especially after getting a horrible lumbar puncture headache that I had to get a blood patch for) sitting in front of my mirror, with my laptop next to me, following along with your makeup tutorials, trying to figure out how to do my makeup half blind, in case I never got my sight back - I did get it back. You guys had so much to do with my recovery. I have been on three different meds - the first one was amazing but I can't take it anymore - and I have had one relapse - in the other eye - since my diagnosis. I don't know why this means so much to me, but I look up to you so much and I just wanted to say thank you for speaking out and showing people that MS is livable. Every word is EXACTLY how I feel and what I've thought and I can't stop crying! UGH, I love you so much for this (and for other things.) Here's to being positive, being sexy, having a real dumb immune system, and living the shit outta life. xoxoxo

Crying is not weakness. It takes a strong person to cry publicly and an even stronger person to share their lives with a bunch of strangers. Also, you only cried when talking about your family which to me means you're more concerned about how this will effect them rather than feeling sorry for yourself! Also, even if you were to be a single women without a partner or children it's okay to cry when talking about it... after all you are allowed to mourn the life you thought you were going to have.

Talk to your doctor and they can recommend a support group or what steps you can take in order to get the support you need. You don't have to feel like you do, you just have to muster up a teensy bit more courage and ask for help (I know asking for help is hard!).

I completely understand you. Maybe I don't have the MS, but at my 23rd bday I was diagnosed with breast cancer. Luckily (however it sounds...) it's not dangerous, but, unluckily it very possible to develop into maligant/dangerous cancer. Another minus - it is so deep in my breast that removing this can damage my breast, so, when I decide to have a child, I might not be able to breastfed. What is more - I am in a group of huge risk of cervical cancer. I am just 23... Similarly to you - my breast is sometimes in such a big pain..But this pain reminds me to be happy, to enjoy every moment. I know that the only thing I can do is to eat healthy, workout, have a good sleep and avoid stress. I wish everybody who is sick to be happy and to believe in our future. I know that listening to out body, keeping a balance in our lives will save us. Bless you and your family!

My Mam has MS, she's the strongest and most independent woman I know. When she first relapsed we had no idea what was happening to her, no doctors would hear her out and they kept dismissing her. It was heartbreaking to see her so debilitated, I then had to take care of a mother that always takes care of me. I was actually extremely relieved when we found out she had MS and I know it sounds bad because it's a horrible disease, but I was so terrified it would be brain cancer and that my Mam would be taken away from me. It's not a death sentence, but it is extremely hard. She worries that she will pass it on to me, but I'm not worried. I'll just be as strong as her and as strong as you, stay strong you sweet MS warrior💕

I'm devastated to hear this. I too have been experiencing problems and have an MRI (of my brain) scheduled this Friday, which will likely lead to more testing. I fear it is MS. This may seem odd given I've never met you or Sam, but you both are amazing people. I follow Pixiwoo and support Real Techniques not only because of your vast knowledge and adept skill, but because you are both genuine and kind...authentic. I love the video of you and your Mom (Mum)...and know where you both get your wonderful personality. My hats off to her for raising not only bright and well adjusted children, but also kind and compassionate. I too am a single mom and have a deep appreciation for the sacrifices she made to keep you safe, healthy and happy. I will keep you and Sam, brothers, Mom and children in my prayers. Stay strong and brave and I will try to do the same.

I personally have chronic eczema on my body that is a daily challenge to manage, it doesn't sound like much but imagine constant nagging itch that you can't scratch, in the most inconvenient places (back of thighs, your elbows, your back, areas you need to sit or put in contact with other things at some point). But anyway. We all find ways to cope. So thank you and I stand with you in sharing stories xx

I always wonder why I get so emotional about it because I'm not scared and I know it will be gone one day. Thank you for sharing! It's always makes me feel good when I hear other people's stories and see how they are surviving. Makes me feel less alone and more normal.

Corie Ball I've had a prolactinoma for several year too. Since 2011. When I got it I went on a drug for 3 years and since stopping it I've had no problems with it, it hasn't grown and my hormone levels are fine, in fact I forget I even have it. Doctors actually believe that lots of people have small pituitary growths that never get picked up. I just thought I'd tell you this so you know that the outlook is good and it shouldn't be something that interferes with your life 🙂

I think I understand your tears. I too was diagnosed with MS 10 years ago. My Father had a terrible progressive course with MS that took his life after a 10 year struggle. The day I was diagnosed I thought my life was over. I cried watching your video because while my disease is generally quiet in comparison to my Dads,I am reminded of the enormous loss I felt/feel with the disease. The mostly subtle physical effects are a daily reminder that I'm not in control of everything after all 😏 But-as you said,,life goes on,,,and it's a good life. We cry maybe for the loss of a free spirit that was taken with a diagnosis of something our firsthand experience with was pretty dreadful. And maybe we cry because we are thankful yet tentative that we won't repeat the course of our Fathers. I believe our lives are full of hope, love, and laughs. My tears sometimes surprise me, but overall,,,I'm not so afraid anymore about MS. Thank you for sharing your story.

My childhood best friend was diagnosed with a very progressive and very aggressive form of MS by the time he was diagnosed he was told he had a couple of years left to live. he found this doctor in Chicago named Dr. Burt who has literslly cured many people of MS with stem cell replacement. My friend is jist at his 1 year mark since going to see Dr. Burt and has NO active MS. he is back at work full time he is back at the gym and he is leading a full life. he feels like he was granted a miracle and I agree. So when I see stories of MS I tell everyone find this doctor (He has videos all over KZfaq w/ his former patients) he may just be able to help all of those with MS

No warning, no family history, nothing and BANG, MS! I applaud you for sharing your story but please don't be scared because you can fight this. A girl like me needs a role model like you. I'm scared for my future too but if I dwell on it, I'll drown myself. We've got this! MS is a bitch of a disease but it doesn't deserve to steal your spirit, your smile and your beauty. Stay strong. And please keep sharing. You're amazing! P.S. Totally understand not wanting to tell people. I don't want a pity party because I live a relatively good life. Yes, I have shit days but I don't want people treating me differently. I'm a RRMSer too and I don't need nor want sympathy. I'm still me.

I also totally agree. I also think it's ok to cry about something that is shitty. Just don't let it dominate your life (which I know is only easy to say). Because life and especially time is very precious. This is for everything starting with ended relationships, dealing with diseases and in the end with death of beloved people. It's ok to cry and be vulnerable and sad and desperate and angry and all at the same time. I think it's truly necessary for your overall health (even more if you have MS or cancer). To let those bad feelings out when they occur and they will every once in a while. And then start again with new hope and power and confidence. The mental health makes a huge difference in dealing with physical health issues. Thanks so much for sharing. Wish you all the best!

hi nic. i too have m.s. my dad also has it. he has secondary progressive and i have the same as you. except that i have the type called "highly active RRMS" I average around 4-6 relapses a year. i was diagnosed when i was 20 so its been 12 years now. when i was diagnosed there were few treatments and i quickly went down hill due to a stressful job until i was bedbound. i stayed thay way for 2 years. in those 2 years i found this channel and watched it religiously. i know exactly how u feel. please dont be scared about the future. 4 years ago i was put on a treatment called tysabri. i NEVER had a relapse again. our old flare ups may heal but not fully or those lessions (scars) may completely heal but know that your life expectancy is exactly the same. we just dont have an immune system that works the way it should. instead of fighting off infections its attacking our brain and central nervous system. you have to have a good balance. which u seem to have. you must gove yourself time to rest. our body works 10x as hard than someone without ms. you will absolutely see your kids get married. my dad walked me down the isle. the treatments available now are incredible compared to when i first found out. also, our ms lays dormant when we get pregnant (they dont know why yet) and attacks after the birth. so when i had my first child 7 years ago i was bed bound again for a while. funny story, when i was stuck in bed watching your channel, i was trying to teach my husband how to do makeup on me 😂😂 if i couldn't do it, someone had to 😊 he still cant do it but was such a sport for trying. now i dont need any help. i can manage quite well. thank you and your sister for keeping me company and distracting me in one of the darkest moments of my life. we will both be bloody fantastic 😘 xoxo

Michelle Gruba hi dunno if I can help but my husband died in Feb of lung cancer and you don't really get help unless u ask for it, which I didn't I wanted to do it all myself, I was with him when he died at home in his bed and then I slept next to him one last night. I myself am a loner type and don't like reaching out maybe ur similar,I hate asking for help and I also didn't want anyone else to care for him. It was my job. now I'm a frigging widow at 32, if u need to talk I'm here

storm le cat Much love darling. I have a very close friend who went through the same loss in their early 30's, it was a brain tumour. I haven't got any words to make it feel less painful, to ease your loss. But my friend has remarried 6 years later, to wonderful man who she is bringing up her children with. Life for you is right now a day by day, don't think about the future, just keep making your daily life as normal as you can. Keep feeling how you feel, no matter what it is because grief is a funny bugger of a thing. I know you know your husband would want that for you, he loved and adored you. Plus you know he'll always be with you, in your heart, no matter what you do and where you go in your life. He's in every star you see, every tree and every flower, every time you feel your heartbeat he's with you. It's an absolute rule of the universe that matter is never gone, we live in a constantly renewing closed system where matter is endlessly reused. Every atom that made your husband is still around you and nothing will ever change that. I'm not religions personally, but every time I grieve I find that thought really comforting. You don't have to wait till you pass on to be with tjose you love, they're still here with you, just in a different form. Thinking of you.

My dad has MS and so does my Nan I have cared for them both for as long as I can remember. I've watched their good and bad times. My dad recently completed a half marathon despite his pain. It can be so hard to watch them suffer sometimes, but it makes me so proud to see them in their good times

It's a testament to what a strong and inspirational woman you are that with all this going on you've raised a beautiful family and created a fantastic business. I feel honoured you've shared this with us and I'm honestly in awe of you. Stay strong, you're wonderful x

Thank you for sharing... I am sure it is not easy to do but you spoke a message that brings awareness. You are a very strong woman, with humility, faith, love, and family. That in itself is all we need, sometimes as individuals we need a moment alone to deal with things our own way. Nothing wrong with that... You and your sister have been my YT sisters for a very long time, and you will continue to be God willing. You have encouraged me to look into it b/c everything you have experienced I have experienced and it's been tuff especially the dizziness, eye sight issues, and fatigue. So time to go get it checked. Thank you again.

I cried watching this; not because I feel bad for you (you are NOT a victim, you *live* with MS, it doesn't own you), but because it is truly inspiring to see how strong and brave you are. I sympathize with you and truly wish you the best in your journey.

It's always a strange situation to tell people something like that! I reacted the same when I was diagnosed with cancer 4 years ago. I cried for myself, I got it together, I started all the treatment - but when I had to tell people about that, I cried again even though I didn't feel sorry for myself, it was just so crazy to tell it to people I love. I saw how it made them feel. So all the best to you, I think you are brave and just a great woman!

Wow, you are so brave, what an inspiration to all your followers. I’d say you faced an illness with determination and resolve to do the best you can to live your best life. I don’t see you feeling sorry for yourself, I see you dealing with your situation as a fighter.....fighting something very hard. You are absolutely AWESOME.
