Hi,

I just visited my naturopath last night and feels that I am doing well on the B12 and B-Complex injections, as well as all of the other recommended supplements.

D was 21 inititally and now it is 90. My B12 levels were not ...

I need help with some vitamins. I work 45-60 hours most week and am lucky to get a drive-thru meal once a day. It is very hard to eat right (if at all) most days for me.

I have learnt today that i infact have a pressure sore near my coccyx and its not a pilonidal sinus,
the dr mentioned its likely due to my fairly sedentary lifestyle and muscle wastage,

so tomorrow, as the sore is infected, i will be starting a seven day course of Flucloxacillin (250mg 4x daily) - which should hopefully improve my weakened legs/bladder

But i was wondering if other MS patients have had pressure ...

Has anyone tried a raw foods diet and what have the effects been?

i would probably take 1-2 tablet of these daily = 250-500mg calcium as i only take 250mg magnesium glycinate daily

- Is it best to take one of these calcium ...
