This Is MS Multiple Sclerosis Knowledge & Support Community

Think my husband always took about 2000 mgs, but one study says 500mgs 2 X per day.

Brock, Do you supplement with Vitamin C? There is evidence (lots of research if you do a search )that this can help with the hyperpigmentation issues with Mino. Whenever my husband uses mino his dr. always tells him to also take C---in faily large amounts. Otherwise, I am glad to hear you are doing ...

I don't want to get anyone off track here, but I felt compelled to add this. My husband spent 11 yrs in the Marines, and was dx'd with MS about eight yrs after seperation. He has found out about a number of Marine Corps colleagues who have also been dx'd with MS or ALS. As it turns out, we think he ...

No not recently, when I was 8 (I was very ill indeed). So far so good for me except for persistently swollen lymph nodes of unexplained origin.

MS skipped me, went to my sister and my husband, and they both have their appendix(es).

Well, mine ruptured--what's in store for me??

Another take on the Faroes' MS Epidemic. I guess it's all in one's perspective. Researcher Markus Fritzsche offers his opinion here: The arrows on Fig. 6 represent the migratory routes of seabirds, if a number of species such as puffins and seagulls are taken together. To avoid very cold and hot weat...

I have the DVD, and it is revealing. If you all lived closer, I'd invite you over for popcorn.

You can buy it here (disclaimer: I have NOTHING to do with this movie, just passing on info)

Ha! Anyone dealing with this maddening disease is bound to become a mad hatter themselves! I have heard an interestingly similar theory about gravitational pull/magnetic field gradient, and the natural disposition of nation states. Whose to say what is mad......when we know so little about anything....

Hi Guys, First, a shout out to all of you guys who are forging ahead........Thanks to all you brave ones! One of the more accepted aspects of MS is its geographic distribution. How does one marry the CCSVI theory with this? Here is my quandry--- if we were only talking genetics, inheritance could be...

His relationship (PAID relationship!) with the Pharmaceutical Research and Manufacturers of America (PhRMA) is disturbing to me. He is a paid spokesman for big pharma. The same big pharma that plans to spend millions in an ad campaign to make sure citizens are aware of the importance of "free m...

http://www.uvaldeleadernews.com/articles/2008/11/17/news/news1.txt Our 17 yr old is thought to have been infected with two strains of this bug....which in her case caused a lot of psychiatric symptoms. Luckily her mri's were normal, but they did show "enlarged perivascular spaces" and trea...

So what, people post on multiple forums all the time. I post here, MS world, CPn Help and lymenet (I don't do multiple posts--it's just not my thing), and I see many people who post the same questions and such. Heck, I know some people here who do that. I think Andrew using the same name in his mult...

Well, good thing you aren't king around here, Peta. Tell us, what did you find out about Andrew???? I googled him too and found nothing. I also googled myself and found many interesting things about ME!-It was fun!! The trailer to the movie is actually a link to a pretty good documentary---won a Tri...

[/quote] There are many Lyme forums on the internet.[quote] I know, but I like it here, Peta. The fact is there may be a lyme(bacterial/MS) link and my husband is and always will be MS diagnosed.......so I do feel I belong. I am glad you received comprehensive treatment for lyme, and that you have r...

Oh no, I'm not going off on Robbie!!!! If it seems that way, I am sorry......I am not. I am just trying to get some info out that never sees the light of day, however, that doesn't mean the data doesn't exist. I don't care how, when, where one had a lyme test; whether it was on blood, spinal fluid, ...
