 Post subject: Which drug to try next?
PostPosted: Tue May 14, 2013 4:32 am 
I started copaxone on Thursday. The first shot brought on redness and hives. Friday's shot was extremely painful (well, not the shot itself, the pain starts 30 seconds after). The pain was on par with childbirth, natural childbirth actually, on Sunday (happy Mother's Day!). Each day brought more pain, which takes three hours to totally disappear.

I used the auto injector each time because I am having trouble with my hands and don't think I ...

 Post subject: Any advice for flushing?
PostPosted: Fri May 10, 2013 1:16 pm 
For the past few weeks, my cheeks have been bright red. From what I gather from Dr. Google, this can be blamed on MS (it's never happened before and does not go away). Anyone have any advice that might help? Every time I look in a mirror I wonder who that clown like person is looking back at me...

 Post subject: Blocking protein expression delays onset of MS in mice
PostPosted: Fri May 10, 2013 2:46 am 
Blocking the expression of just one protein in the brain delays the onset of paralysis in mice with a form of multiple sclerosis, say researchers at the School of Medicine.

Exactly why this happens is still unclear. It may be, in part, that blocking expression of the protein, SIRT1, enhances the production of cells that make the insulating myelin sheath necessary for the transmission of nerve signals. This myelin coating is damaged in autoimmune diseases ...

Surgery and risk for MS: a systematic review and meta-analysis of case--control studies

Although the precise etiology of multiple sclerosis is largely unknown, there is some speculation that a prior history of surgery may be associated with the subsequent risk for developing the disease. Therefore, we aimed to examine surgery as a risk factor for the diagnosis of multiple sclerosis...... Read More - http://www.ms-uk.org/index.cfm/MSnews
