Thanks for your messages. I know I will get to stop Rebif before I start Tysabri, but where I have to have a MRI and lumber puncture first it will probbably be a few months. I wanna stop Rebif now!! Trouble is, the neuro said to keep going, also my ms nurse and family are the same...I guess I'll hav...

Hello, I saw my neuro Tuesday and he would like me to start Tysabri. I am pleased about it (although it means my MS is progressing which sucks) though it will be a bit of time til I start - have to have another MRI and a lumber puncture first. My question is, can I stop my Rebif now? As he has said ...

Hiya, thanks so much everyone for your replies. I did have my iron levels tested initially, but not since. I certainly feel very weak and dizzy, and quite sick as well? However I do take my multi vit and minerals daily, do you guys think I should double it for the minute? I had a scan yesterday, the...

Hello, Just an update on this problem I'm having. I've continued to bleed daily as in like a heavy period, with a couple of episodes of 'flooding' over the last week. Then last night, well early hours of the morning really between 4am and 7am I had 6 episodes of sudden flooding of blood. Then once u...

Thanks Ewizabeth, I hope it's not that too. Guess I'm just waiting for my hospital app now

Hiya, my iron levels tested fine. Not sure what the other thing you said was they tested hormone level, pregnancy, thyroid, blood sugar and iron. xx

Hi everyone, just to update you went to the dr today. Blood tests showed nothing except high blood sugar, so I've got to have another one thursday after a 12hr fast.

Also waiting now for a hospital app for further investigations.

Hiya everyone. I followed the BBD for the first 6 months of the year, I stuck to it really well but found it so so hard I came off it. A couple of things I've stuck to, well one which is that I have rice milk. Also I don't really have beans. Anyway. I looked back over my 'ms diary' that I keep the o...

Hi Redsonja. The dr told me to take ibuprofen to stop the bleeding. i'M STILL bleeding but in a 'normal' way, rather than the flooding it was. It's jjust hard with work and things, I'm in a relapse with my right leg so exhausted anyway, and then this isn't helping! Have to work tho as otherwise I do...

Thanks for your messages. Alley - I am on Rebif so I guess it could be thAT? I will speak to my MS nurse. Seems a bit odd tho as I've been on it for a year now. I have had this bleeding problem before, but only twice in the last 8 years - this was before I was on rebif. Anyway, I saw my doctor and h...

Hiya, I started gabapentine a week ago, and baclofen 2 weeks ago. Over the weekend and last night (3 nights out of 4) I have had EXTREMELY heavy bleeding. I'm not going to be course but we're talking about (apologises) flooding, not just a heavy period. I wondered if it could be the tablets, prob ga...

Hiya, I started baclofen a week ago. I'm still on a really low dose so perhaps thats why I haven't seen the effects you have yet. I started on hALF a tablet 3 x a day, I've gradually gone up to 1 tablet 3 x a day. The first time I took it I pretty much fell asleep straight away at 2 in the afternoon...

Thanks so much everyone for your answers! I will have a look at what info you've all put on.

Thanks again,

Hi everyone, I'm getting a bit worried about my job. I really really love it, its just I'm starting to make some mistakes which I know is cos this MS gives me what I call brain fog...I just can't work things out logically and I'm so worried I'll do something seriously wrong and get fired. I can't ta...

Hiya everyone,

I am new to the site, my name is Laura I am 25 and live in the UK in the South. Diagnosed with RRMS December 2005, though the Neuro thinks I had it for about 5-6 years before that.

Just wanted to say hi to everyone, hope you're all well today!
