I'm far from being well-versed in science, and I realize that M.S. is not specifically mentioned in this article, so if this is complete hogwash forgive me... but based on the intriguing links to diet and MS, I figured I would share.

PostPosted: Thu May 16, 2013 11:06 am 
Man, this has been a rough, rough road. I know you all are not doctors, but I am really having so much trouble getting a diagnosis.

Over the past year I have had intermittent neck pain, radiating down my neck. Stiff for a few days, often when waking up.

Then about three months ago - I was on a plane and noticed my right thumb twitching, some neck pain and stiffness in my wrist and ...

PostPosted: Thu May 16, 2013 9:20 am 
last night my wife said on the back of her head it felt like little bugs crawling under her skin. anyone else ever get that feeling? i was able to pinpoint the spot with my finger but she said it was below the surface.

is it a new symptom (ie new damage) or could it be old neurons firing again (ie repair)

the feeling is gone now.

Good morning from NYC! I am a newbie to this forum, having stumbled upon this wonderful forum recently. (AND SO GLAD I did!)

Let me tell you a little background. I am 35 years old. I have a wonderful husband and 2 beautiful daughters, age 3 years and 5 weeks. Yes stress is bad for me, but wouldn't change the joy motherhood for anything. The neurologist wanted to put me on Avonex last year, but ...

 Post subject: Dizziness--Is it MS related??
PostPosted: Wed May 15, 2013 7:22 pm 
I woke up very dizzy several nights ago. It's better now but still there. Sudden
movement, leaning over to wash my hair etc. all make me dizzy and nauseated. I started Tecfidera two weeks ago. Could it be that? I have no appetite partly due to nausea, partly because of meds. Anyone have help? If its a flair up, I can endure. If its due to Tecfidera, I can't live like this for very long. ...
