This Is MS Multiple Sclerosis Knowledge & Support Community

Thanks all who responded. I am 3 weeks in to a 4 week HBOT treatment. I go M-F for 1 hour a day. It has definitely helped reverse some of my symptoms but none are 100% reversed at this point. But I still have hope that they will. I have met another MS patient at the clinic who has been periodically ...

Well, I posted this under a different heading and I think it got lost. So I am going to try to post it again here under "general discussion." Has anyone on this board tried hyperbaric oxygen therapy to help heal their symptoms of MS that haven't gone away on their own? I have been doing so...

If anyone tries this treatment for their bladder, please let us know how well it works for you. Thanks OP for sharing this info!

I have been doing some research online and have found that many people, especially in the UK, routinely use HBOT to help their MS symtpoms. It also seems as though HBOT has...

Sarah,
I think you (and your hubby) were smart in finding a solution and going for it. I sent you a PM.

What show is this? I cannot find anything that matches this in the US.

I know that red meat is a good source of iron. I have been borderline anemic my whole life. Now that I have cut out red meat my iron numbers are falling even more. I am also gluten-free, dairy-free, legume-free, and I don't eat a lot of eggs. I also do not eat any foods in the mollusk family or any ...

Popsie,
I was curious as to what 11 symptoms you have seen improvement in. Could you share?

If I were you, I would back the dose down to 1.5mg and try again. Most people have more success with starting at a lower dose and then working up to the 4.5mg dose. Either have you doctor write you a new script for the 1.5 or I have heard that you can take the 4.5 capsule and dilute it in 4.5mL of w...
