This Is MS Multiple Sclerosis Knowledge & Support Community

What are you asking?

Gia sou from Portland OR. Hang in there man. You are not alone. We are all here to support you on this site. Take care.

I think that there are some that believe that MS is a whole category of symptoms and not a individualized disease. If antibiotics helped me improve or even just stopped the progression I'd be very excited. Its worth a try for sure. What other options do we have at this point?

Dear E, Cooling vest are great. Ive been using them for the last 5 summers and they realy help. The can keep your core temp down for up to 4 hours dependant on the outdoors tempreture. I keep mine in the freezer all summer long so its icy cold. Also there 's nothing wrong with getting a wheelchair f...

How do you know that the LDN is causing your spasticity?

Dear Loobie,
Ditto! I second all that you have said. Our experiences sound almost identical. Cant wait for the fall.
Take care.

I have seen icreased spasticity too. It has shown up in the last year while in the trial. Both initially and the re-treatment phase. I invite anybody who isn't seeng slowing down or stopping of the progression to share that on this forum or through a pm. I hope that the Tovaxin vaccine works better ...

The Dr. is having a meeting at Opexa this week about the cases (mine) that haven't responded the way they expected in the higher dose category or haven't responded regardless of the dose. I should know more by next week and if appropriate I will post info soon. Thanks.

Dear Mary, I will come in at the oposite side of Bob's position. Imagine the satisfaction and exileration of being fully alive and manifesting your dreams. Life gives us no guaranties. Tomorow say , I am crossing the street and I get struck by a bus or lighting for that matter, I would want to be co...

Dear Abe
You can not get the equivelent of 10 fish oil caps in 2 spoonfulls of flaxseed even if you could extract the total amount of oil it still wouldn't be equal, which you can't do in the first place by chewing and digestion...
Just a thought.

It is just my opinion, but I think that it's irresponsible on your part to be posting on forums in hopes of getting a diagnosis from a community of lay persons. You need to go and see a doctor/expert immediatly. Your symptoms sound serious to affect your life and the sooner you are in the know, the ...

I am assuming that since they didn't have to redo any of the phase Ia or IIa trials as they increased the peptides that wont be an issue in the future.
Tim might be able to answer your question.

Dear Lars and Lyon, I hate to be the odd man out there, for obvious reasons but Tovaxin has not helped me one bit. Even with the first 2 vaccinations of the re-treatment series I continue on the downward slide of progression. I couldn't even walk the 200m with my cane last time in Houston. The big q...

Sounds more like a bacterial die-off reaction to me. Especially when you consider the absence of other symptoms such as sinusitis or sore throat or cough. Hope you feel better soon.

Your mom sounds like a neat and couragious lady. I am sorry for your loss. I hope that you are well and please keep us up to date with your process.
