A few posts here have mentioned the regimen for MS in The Better Brain Book by Perlmutter.

I recently bought the book. I think its a useful reference. In addition to a discussion of key risks/impacts on brain function and how to minimize, it had a good “glossary” explaining the purpose of several key supplements.

The book has sections on specific brain disorders, including MS (others are stroke, vascular dementia, alzheimers, parkinsons, and ALS).

Today, I just wanted to extend my thoughts and prayers to Sarah and other British MS friends. The attacks in London have brought back so many memories of the 9/11 attacks. Godspeed to all of you.

An old but interesting piece about the link between mycoplasma and chlamydia species and chronic asthma, and by inference other chronic chest infections.

Another reason for the need of the return of the General Physician, I would have thought.

I went for my 3 month checkup today. Unfortunately I didn't get a neurological assesment but it would only have confirmed what I know. Since treatment my condition has definitely improved. Prior to treatment I was assesed as EDSS 4.0, in my own judgement I have improved by at least 1 EDSS point since treatment, probably more. Hopefully these improvements will continue.

A sobering note to the proceedings was that one patient on the CAMMS223 ...

Dear all,

MS is now being recognised by many specialists as a disease which is more than inflammation. The attached article (a year old) sets out this thinking and links in to my earlier posts on neuro-protection.

Dear all,

Attached is an article from the UK paper 'The Times'. Its about regrowing / repairing dead / damaged nerves. The article is about Parkinsons but says that the treatment should be applicable to other conditions involving the CNS. It's probably early days but another glimmer of hope for the future.

Dear all.

At the end of May 2005 the UK MS Society held its annual research conference. The focus of the conference was neuro-protection (a recognition that tackling attacks / inflammation alone was not enough. It's still early days but there are signs that some trials are beginning to take place). Fingers crossed that some effective treatments are delivered in the future. One of the ways they will test for effectiveness is to measure if ...
