Re: New to board - first relapse
Very interesting... I will definitely take this to my dr. She wants me to take the D2 for 12 weeks and then recheck the bloodwork.High dose D3 supplements at 10,000 IU/tablet are readily available OTC. As such, there's no reason to be using high dose D2 which can inhibit D3 in your body.

Re: New to board - first relapse

Re: New to board - first relapse

Re: New to board - first relapse
Thank you again! The stiffness and weakness are in my arms. Legs are okay, except for the balance issues. The loss of use of my hands and arms is really scary and so very debilitating, especially since it is significantly worse each day. I find it interesting that my neuro hasn't recommended any sup...

Re: New to board - first relapse
Thanks for the reply... I really appreciate it. Torso and legs feel good. I have an on and off mild tingle in my toes, but it's not bad. My arms feel really heavy, like I'm holding 20 lb weights. I also have some stiffness, my movements are really jerky. I forgot to mention that I had no new lesions...

New to board - first relapse
Hi everyone -- I am new to this board. I will be 40 at the end of the month and I was diagnosed in 2012. I am currently 6 weeks into my first relapse since I was diagnosed, so this is all new to me. It started the first week of February with numbness and tingling on my left side, from head to toe. M...
