This Is MS Multiple Sclerosis Community: Knowledge & Support

Hi everyone,
My husband was diagnosed three years ago with RRMS. His MRI last week showed new lesions and he is having more symptoms, severe fatigue, foot drop, weak extremities, visual difficulties and falling frequently. I spoke with Dr. Stratton and had our neuro run the test for the CPn and his level was 1:128. He is reluctant to try the abx but I think it might help. Please I am desperate. We have two ...

I'm wondering if anyone here knows anything about this? (specifically about hypertension)

I have been taking (NAC) N Acetyl Cysteine for OCD treatment as an NDMA antagonist, and it seems to work pretty well. I am taking 600mg every six hours. Is is safe to up my daily dosage to 3600 mg? The very first time I took it I felt a kick after about 30 minutes. It doesn't appear to work the full six ...

Hello everyone,
Im several months in the "grey" zone, i dont have definitive diagnosis but I have a lot of MS symptoms for almost 1 year - fingers numbness, tingling in arms and legs, muscle weakness, tinnitus, nystagmus... I had MRI in October 2011, there was only 1 very small lesion (up to 3mm) in atypical area for MS (my neurologist said), lumbar puncture, VEPs, EMG, EEG were clear.

Does any one know how ibprophen or tylenol reacts to ms?

Hello everyone,
I have PPMS and live in NYC. My neuro and internist are supportive of me starting ABX treatment, but I can not find anyone who has prescribed the protocol before and who is comfortable with the stages and/or side effects.
First question- have you heard of a dr that treats in Manhattan or NYC?
I did get my CPN load checked by a blood test and Dr. Stratton said it was 'high', but ...

Hi!

It is so very important that anyone prescribed antibiotics, takes the supplement acidophilus( pro biotic), to replace the good bacteria in the stomach, pro biotic drinks are not good enough, if not the bad bacteria can cause you problems

Hi there, welcome to my new shiny blog/diary. I'm 31, have had MS and CFS for 12 years (lucky me!) and I don't believe either are illnesses in their own right, but i'm sure i'll babble on about that later! I've had CCSVi surgery, it made things as lot worse and i've done a gazillion other things but for the last year i've been itching to give ABX a go because it focuses along lines ...

Hello to all who are treating themselfs with Abx's.

Can You comment if there are any benefits after you've started taking Abx's for MS treatment.

Please comment!!!

I started taking minocycline two months ago (100mg / day) and I've been having a fair amount of joint and muscle pain. I'm assuming this is the "transient lupus syndrome" I've read about. Can anyone tell me if they have experienced this and, if yes, your advice on whether I should (1) Stop taking the drug (2) Just ride it out (3) Switch to doxycycline. I'm not on any other therapy: I've opted for for ...
