Re: 2018: Comorbidity in US patients with multiple sclerosis
Thanks for keeping on top of this. This morning I had scarily painful legs so today I stayed away from the NuStep. The other thing I've been doing is trying to walk every day. But today being a snow day I didn't. If I don't have the same scare in the morning that'll be it. I'll have to take every ot...

Re: 2018: Comorbidity in US patients with multiple sclerosis
Well I would have thought I would never need a B supplement, because I take 300 mg /day of rice bran, which I thought was all the b vitamin part of rice that is removed, and you don't get, unless you eat brown rice. I'm only using it as filler but I would have thought I got lots of B2! Guess not.

Re: Atorvastatin
Maybe it's biodegradable because your body wants to absorb it!

Thanks very much for the link to https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.1080/10408398.2017.1392288?src=recsys Was just discussing how Canada Food Guide had been retrieved from the jaws of Commercialism. This is pretty definitive, and ready for a digest (!) version... I am now on that magnesium you ...

Re: Atorvastatin
That won't work for me. Apparently I was on a high dose of lipitor because of my 3 heart stents.

Well my bp was 175 over 95 i think but I'll find out for sure. in fact i have the bp machine sitting next to me. i'll be monitoring it and taking a water pill to add on to my bp medication (15 mg ramipril). Would love to just get enough dietary magnesium. We've been discussing vagus nerve issues...

Re: 2018: Comorbidity in US patients with multiple sclerosis
I have very high blood pressure. My gut is fine since three years ago I started biotin 300mg+rice bran 300 mg. Lately I have been having kidney problems. I get an exacerbation in my kidneys if I take too much calcium (watch out for TUMS). But worst lately is pain and stiffness in my calf muscles, sp...

Re: Focus on the gut-brain axis
If you want to completely destroy your gut microbiome, try a good heavy course of antibiotics. I was on one for about three months when I was twelve. I'm now 65.

Re: Atorvastatin
I have been hearing a lot lately about lipitor causing leg pain. I have been on it 80mg for 10 years. I have been having unexplained muscle pain in my legs. Going off lipitor hasn't helped in a couple of weeks. Early days yet, but my doc says there are other statins I can try. I need it because I ha...

lead poisoning
Leaded gas stopped being sold in 1980. Until then it was poisoning everyone. See https://www.thenation.com/article/secret-history-lead/ . There could be a direct link between this ban and the worldwide incidence of MS going *down*. If ethyl lead had anything to do with causing MS, we could see a cor...

Zamboni/Zivadinov PRO/CON
Everybody seems to agree there is vascular involvement. Statistics show PTA, done right, on the right people, can help. "when PTA restored the flow in the internal jugular vein in favour of gravity, 91% of patients did not develop new T2 MRI lesions (p<.007)." A while ago it was shown when...

Re: New MAB: Ublituximab Completely Reduces MS Lesions
Silica gel crystals are hydrophilic. That means they love water. They soak it up until they are bloated. It's like wearing a wet rag around your neck that takes a long time to dry out. Whatever you do, don't breathe them or ingest them in any way. Try not to even touch them. You won't like it, guar...

Re: New MAB: Ublituximab Completely Reduces MS Lesions
Another BTW, Dr. Zamboni and fellow researchers have found it takes 15-20 seconds after a body posture change, for brains in MS to stabilize their circulation. That means if you try to walk immediately after standing up, you will probably fall down, with potentially injurious effect. So wait 20 seco...

Re: New MAB: Ublituximab Completely Reduces MS Lesions
Also BTW, I am now trying out a collapsible cane! i was kind of walker-bound. I got tired of having to stay on my tricycle once I had reached a destination. I am going to try using it on a bike trip once I feel a bit more comfortable walking with it. Have to buy a really good lock. Anybody have sugg...

Re: New MAB: Ublituximab Completely Reduces MS Lesions
BTW my significant other is making me a neck cooler. What you do is empty the silica gel packages that comes in little bags in a lot of prescription bottles, into a home made neck thingy that is just two strips of cloth with compartments sewn into it for the silica crystals. To use them you soak the...
