Re: Signs of MS can be spotted five years before onset
Again, this matches a Chlamydophila pneumoniae (CPn) infection that starts in the lungs, and in the case of susceptible people possibly with the SP140 genetic weakness, eventually spreads throughout the body wreaking havoc and knocking out lines of cells and generally making you sick.
Note that a diagnosis of MS often occurs with an uveitis diagnosis, and CPn is increasingly associated with or named as the cause of eye problems like uveitis, retinitis, and macular degeneration -- clearly a supposed pneumonia bug has managed to get through the body, through the BBB, and into the eye, amongst other things...

Re: Signs of MS can be spotted five years before onset
If that's true then good god... I'm probably had M.S since I was 14. In 2004 I had an episode where my leg went numb and wouldn't work properly for an entire day. I had absolutely no idea what to make of it then, I never told anyone about that either. Then a year later at 15 I had an episode where I kept seeing black spots for hours. I told my Mom about this at the time and she thought I was on drugs - this was also dismissed as literally nothing.

MS symptoms from an exacerbation usually stick around longer than one day. For example, my optic neuritis lasted for a week or two and and even after being dosed with IV methylprednisolone, my eye was still sensitive to heat for 6 months or so.purpleberry wrote:If that's true then good god...
