Perhaps processed form of Salajjit is safe for pwMS but commercial raw form needs to be taken with care http://health.indiamart.com/ayurveda/ay ... -herb.html

How has been your experience

Re: Reduced glucose metabolism in the frontal cortex

Please see that Sillajit is high in iron content which may be bad for persons with CCSVI. Anybody with MS who has tried Sillajit, please comment.

MS and Hypothyroidism

MS and other autoimmune diseases including Hypothyroidism are said to be closely linked. Although no direct link between these two diseases has been established, I was just wondering how many pwMS are also diagnosed with Hypothyroidism. Your input would be greatly appreciated.

Go for chiropractic treatment and check your spinal alignment especially Atlas since it all began after that minor accident 4. Get yourself checked again thru MRI after six months on LDN and after hav...

Re: Your thoughts on my dx journey?

Brad It looks like you do not have any symptoms related to MS right now which is a good news. Please see that as per my neuro, MS cannot be diagnosed on VEP and MRIs alone or even on one single episode of attack. The lesions which show on MRI show demylination which could be because of so many reaso...
