OOOHHH who said PIMMS?
Im with you on that MrsGeorge!
It bucketed rain all day today in Dublin but a nice cool glass of Pimms would have gone down a treat. Must remind myself to buy a bottle some ...

Good luck with the move Mrs George. Gwa is right - it will really help your fatigue. We have also been looking at moving but we can't quite afford it - perhaps next year. I would also love a bungalow, ...

Eek! I hope not, I'm only 36, although it's possible.

I visited my Mum yesterday and she noticed I was talking way too fast and worrying about everything - she thought I was in an odd mood, so ...

I took 100mg of amantadine yesterday morning at 10am.
Last night I woke at 2am and could not sleep at all. I was drenched in sweat and roasting - normally I am freezing cold. I wonder did the amanta ...

After taking it for three days, I woke up on the fourth morning and my legs were so weak that I literally had to crawl to the bath room. My husband came home from work to take care of me that day and ...

Hi TT
sorry to hear you're not feeling good.

I agree with AC above - if you've just started Copaxone I'd check with your GP - I felt it took Copaxone 6 months to work for me (although any relapses ...

This is really fascinating.

Obviously the effect of the immunosupressive drugs have to be ruled out, but it really makes me go "hmmm"?

Can I ask for those of you who are, ...

I have been on a gluten-free diet for the last 5 years. I found out I was a coeliac - I have had MS 10 years.
It is easy to get a blood test from your GP to see if you are a coeliac.
In the last 5 ...

Thanks for the reply Lynda. No my sinuses are ok at the moment. I usually get hay fever in June, and I get a reaction to damp houses but no sinus problem at the moment.

The autumnal equinox, and t ...

Hi
now is the time when my brain goes to mush and all the strategies I normally have, I forget. Fear sets in.

Noticed a heaviness in my limbs last week, now I see the familiar strong reddish/purpl ...

I seem to remember that Symmetral which is used for MS fatigue, is also anti-viral and is indicated for influenza. Ask your GP or neuro but I think you have to take it early on when you get flu.

Hi Grumpster
10 years ago during my biggest relapse I had severe vertigo. It lasted 3 months and I was on seasickness meds. It really is the most horrible feeling, I empathise completely. It took abo ...

Thanks for the reply Dom.

It seems that for some people damage stopped occurring when they stopped injecting at that site, or injected every other day, but sadly that doesn't seem to apply to you. ...

I suppose that I am about 14lbs heavier than pre-Copaxone days but to be honest a bit of weight gain pales into insignificance if you're faced with serious relapses without it like I was.
