This Is MS Multiple Sclerosis Community: Knowledge & Support

I read about monitoring vitamin levels on here but I have no idea what that involves. Is that a simple blood test or something specific to ask for? How much does it cost?

These three all look like ...

Hi folks,
wondering if anyone has any advice. Been having a rather annoying few weeks with increased twitching all over. Fasciculations, being the proper word I suppose. Wondering if anyone has any suggestions for some supplements that might help curb this.

This has often (or always? I forget) been a symptom of my MS.

I have had MS since 1984. A lot of medical history, but won't bore you to tears. Anyway, I am on a new supplement that is making me feel better than I have in years!
