This Is MS Multiple Sclerosis Knowledge & Support Community

Finally! I get worse the same time every year. It becomes noticeable in Aug. and goes on for about 5 months. It is not the heat as I live over on the coast. I brought up barometric pressure to my Dr. years ago and he had no comment.

I talked with Debbie Hill yesterday she has same job as Megan and she advised another two weeks.

Hi KC,

Hi Brynn,

Awesome to hear your news. You must be giddy.

I believe atmospheric pressure has a lot to do with the way we feel. I got a book from the library "Weather For Dummies". There is a whole section on health. I wonder if one contributing factor to there being more MS cases futher north is because of the atmospheric pressure.

Talk about doing everything wrong!! Wheaaaa! My problems started when I started taking Imitrex (vasoconstrictor) for migraines that started about 5 years ago. So I have been taking Imitrex at least once a month for the last five years. coincindently I started having MS symtoms a few months after sta...

Can somebody give me a website where I can print the MRV protocols out. I have Dr. Hackke's SWI MRI protocol but don't know if they are the same as the MRV.
