This Is MS Multiple Sclerosis Community: Knowledge & Support

Hello Everyone, I need some help. I have what I call "Hot Head". My right foot is purple because it's cold but my head looks like I just stepped out of the shower . The sweat runs down my face and neck. I had angio for CCSVI in November and it went away for 5 days . I'm still paying that off so thats not a option right now. Is there anything I can take to help with this?????
Thanks Rusty2

Rusty,
I believe MS is infection related. In particular I believe it to be the 3 B's. Babesia, Bartonella, and Borrelia (Lyme). Why do I believe this? Because in my hands right now I have blood test results with positive results from all of these tests. These tests are from someone in my family that was diagnosed with MS 15 years ago. With antibiotic treatment slow improvement is happening.
When you indicate SWEATING, this is one of if not the most important and obvious indicators of BABESIA. You should look into the 3 infections above, educate yourself about the controversy of lyme and read Dr. Burrascano's guidelines. And by the way Lyme patients are getting CCSVI treatment also. I hope I helped cause it would have been nice if the MS doctors or anyone who knew about this controversy helped me. I'm serious look into it and also have another person look into for you.

Bartman, thank you so much for the info and I'm looking into it today.
Thanks again

also you might like to look at thyroid function... temp regulation...

Thanks Talisker, I will look into it

I haven't got my "theory" down yet but I do believe infect may play some role, I am looking into the Epstein bar virus however because I had a really bad infection in hi-school, my aunt had it twice, and now she has lymphoma...

I tested for lyme and did not have it however I still have a really "aggressive" case of MS.

My advice besides seeing a doctor asap would also be to look into different viral possibilities however, I would not say that a virus is the ONLY cause, I beleive that it could be a combination of issues, viral, genetic, etc which would explain why such a wide array of treatments can help different patients but again I don't relay have my theory down yet.

Just get into a doctor and make sure your foot isn'tt calling off! Seriously, if it feels tingly that's could mean impaired blood flow to your foot...

Hey mattalleng, Thanks for the advise. I have gone to the Dr because of my foot being cold and all just to make sure there was still a pulse there and thankfully there is. You know when I had the CCSVI angio done it went away so I guess its all in the circulation. Just don't have the funds yet to get it done again...

Matt,
sorry to rusty for interrupting his thread. In order to understand Lyme, you need to know that Lyme testing is not reliable at all. In fact, the sickest patients with Lyme won't test positive because the tests are junk and the bacteria hide in the tissue so it's not detected in the blood. Furthermore, there is a very real and direct link between Lymphoma and Bartonella. Seems thats bartonella loves the lymph nodes. IMO it's only a matter of time before the truth comes out.

Rusty: Thats good that you still have a pulse haha, hopefully you can get that taken care of soon, I'm sure it sucks!

Bart: Funny, it seems like everything is like that! A negative means nothing but a positive means everything just like a spinal tap for MS man I hate that. So basically the test I had done to check for Lyme was a waste of time. How then do you actually get diagnosed with it?

The term proton leak refers to the way mitochondria produce heat. First came across UCP when I was looking at mitochondria energy production in cells. Then did some more searches after reading about some MSers having a low body temp.

Is there any good news in all of these UCP2 links?

Thanks,
