My mother has has MS for many years and her doctor has recently given her Cellcept alone to take. But after reading up about it I've seen it's used for transplant patients and has so many side effects it can only make her worst. Has anyone got any information about this or experience???

Thanks so much for your message. It really breaks my heart seeing her like that. I really thought having a baby in the house would give her something to want to fight for. It's her first grand child and event when I had him, she was the very first person to hold him (even before me). Sometimes she's...

We are currently in Cyprus where my mother is a member of the MS Society. She has access to a physiotherapist (which she doesn't use), an aromatherapist (the only thing she is bothered with), someone to sun errands for her (1 hour, 3 times a week) and a psycologist (again she doesn't want to use).

My mother has had MS for as long as I can remember, but her condition only got bad over the last 3 years.

Hi does anyone have a list of the diet given out by ACT clinic? My mother has MS and although we still have while to go until we have saved up the funds, she wants to try the diet from now to get prepared. Also if there is any other information they give to you on what you need to do in preparation ...

Hi at this clinic, do you take your own stem cells or do they provide you with them there? I am currently pregnant and am going to store the umbilical cord blood as my mother has MS and I was wondering if she can use them?

Any information on this topic will be greatly appreciated. :D My mother suffers from MS and is currently about to start a treatment that takes stem cells from her own body. We don't really know much about this but is it the same as those they take from the placenta? I am currently pregnant and am un...
