I was diagnosed with MS in 2005 nothing changed until 2009. I have such excruitiating knee pain in my left knee and the ankle does not flex either in the left foot. Does anyone else have these symptoms. Not sure it is all related to MS, but doctors won't check for anything else. Help

can you get them to do any nutrient testing? there are some nutrients in common between joint pain and ms.

i'd have a look at serum zinc, serum magnesium, and serum 25(OH)vitaminD3, if you can. they'll likely come back low normal.

if testing doesn't sound plausible, if you like you could send me a link to a specialty nutrition store accessible to you, and i'll see if I can pick some items for you to try out.
