This Is MS Multiple Sclerosis Knowledge & Support Community

I have been reading this thread and found it very informative. Thank you for your contributions and updates. Remember also that humidity increases during the evening and throughout the night. If you don't use air conditioning then please consider getting hold of a dehumidifier to run through the nig...

Hi Thank you for posting this important change over back to sleeping flat. Please keep us informed as to changes positive or negative. Varicose veins which are of course a result of venous insufficiency are "by expert opinion" better off when raised. However, as IBT showed in the very firs...

I know this might sound too obvious but have you tried your old spectacles to see if your sight is going in the right direction?

Hi Mark Hope things have settled down, just read your post, sorry about delay in reply as have been very busy on a major project of mine. Certainly people can still have relapses, though they tend to occur far less than when sleeping flat and less intense and prolonged. Some people have reported a w...

Have made a complaint to the BBC about the
Programme title:
Inside Out BBC progamme
Transmission date:
07/03/2011
Complaint summary:
Incomplete reporting and coverage of CCSVI

Watched the article which was typically presented in an unconvincing manor. The findings were flawed. 1 case of non-ms-ccsvi diagnosis must be dismissed outright! 10 cases out of ten would have been far more interesting and would still require dismissal. Who is to say the reporter does not go on to ...

99.99999% of all stenosis took place using a flat bed. Inclined bed therapy has been shown to reverse ms symptoms without surgery. So IBT should be safe to use after surgery. Angioplasty from what I have learned causes valves inside the veins to be damaged as the endoscope is inserted through them. ...

Many people using IBT for ms have reported shooting / stabbing pains, like electrical pains which are not always in the same place. This appears to be a sign that nerve pathways are opening up again and could indicate significant return of function / sensitivity is imminent. Stay with the IBT and se...

Pinda Thanks for the update. Regarding cramp like pain you mentioned. 1. Potassium levels could be too low. Easy to test by eating a baked potato or banana to see if it is potassium. 2. On an inclined bed one tends to let your legs stretch out. The opposite tends to be the case on a flat bed as many...

Thank you so much for keeping us up to date with your experiences using IBT.

To move forward we need a PHD student to conduct a simple 4 week study on changes in circulation, heart rate and respiration rate using IBT.

Not a lot to ask is it?

Blossom I find it fascinating that when surgery fails people somehow attribute it's failings to IBT. There are after all two models for sleeping for the majority of people, one is a flat, where most people experience problems and the other is tilted where most people experience some improvements. IB...

Many people are testing Inclined bed Therapy and many are experiencing significant improvements without or with surgery. Mainstream doctors and surgeons are now recommending IBT to people with ms, spinal cord injury and Parkinson's disease, thanks to TIMS and New Pathways magazine from the MSRC. Thi...
