This Is MS Multiple Sclerosis Knowledge & Support Community

There have been a number of medications over the years that have stopped and/or reversed mouse MS. But none of them have ever gone on to work in human MS which is very different than the animal model of the disease. One of these days they may find something that works in the mouse and eventually wor...

Next months, 10000 neurologists and researchers meet in Boston (ACTRIMS/ECTRIMS). I think it's a major shortcoming that the viral connection is not at all on the agenda. Yet another year lost? What should we do? Go block the premise? Probably not on the agenda because there isn't enough proven data...

Maybe it has to do with the kind of damage ms has caused in the particular patient. Maybe the disease causes greater vascular damage in ccsviers and that issue has to be addressed for them in addition to the viral issue? That's the problem....nobody knows exactly what mechanism causes MS so when yo...

MS is caused by a virus, just like HIV. HIV is supressed by anti-viral, MS is too. for the overall concept, see the 1st posting of http://www.thisisms.com/forum/general-discussion-f1/topic15188.html Researchers have not been able to prove that theory for decades despite all their studies. What insi...

CONCLUSIONS: HIV infection is associated with a significantly decreased risk of developing MS. Mechanisms of this observed possibly protective association may include immunosuppression induced by chronic HIV infection and antiretroviral medications. HIV is one mean disease to have and you can imagi...

A lot of what you said about toxins and other factors being involved with MS have been studied for many years. Yet despite all this work nobody has been able to say definitively what causes the disease and even more so prove their theories. A treatment that works well for one person does absolutely ...

Hmmm..one patient with HIV and MS and his MS symptoms go away for 12 years after HIV drugs! Is this grasping at straws or what? For years, various cancer drugs have been tried on MS patients with some pretty heavy side effects. These drugs shake up one's immune system terribly and it's no wonder tha...

No own has to go to Mexico to get the treatment which will make you healthy again. I never had to go to any doctor to get well. The information is out there for now you just have to understand what is going on and do the right thing. The scary thing is when the FDA attempts to limit the information...

Many like to confuse the issue by telling us MS is cause by one thing. MS is caused by toxins in the body which cause the immune system to attack the nervous system. Dental work is just one toxin we are exposed to. The young children who are ending up with autism have been exposed to the toxins of ...

Research mercury poisoning. A lot of the same symptoms as MS, it's very reasonable to think you may just have mercury poisoning and not MS. While the symptoms between the two can be similar (as is the case with a number of other neurological disorders) there are tests that are done for MS that can ...

Are you saying since he is an OD we should send him to jail for healing people? I have a big problem with the MD-OD thing. I pay into Medicare just like everyone. Why shouldn't I be able to chose the form of treatment I want and have it covered by Medicare? Our system doesn't want to cover treatmen...

The FDA does not believe that food is useful in healing disease or they would let them practice in our country. If these so called food heals disease advocates could scientifically prove their claims, they would have the blessing of the FDA. But these people can't and never will be able to do this ...

I know the FDA tell us that food makes no difference in healing disease but they are in it for the money. People who follow their direction will remain sick until the die. That is their record. I, for the most part, have been following the guidelines of the FDA for decades and am not sick or dying....

Do you think these jokers go jail for killing people. No, they collect their money for killing their patient and go to their million dollar home. They have no morals. Like Kronk said earlier and I totally agree with....you have no ability to reason or look logically at anything. With a comment like...

I have an open mind. Oh really?!! Someone who states that all doctors are liars, the FDA employees are all criminals and the makers of vaccines want to keep us all sick qualifies as having an "open mind!!" I have tried the drugs but they didn't work for me. It is my hope that the newly di...
