Hello. New member, glad to be here
I have struggled with majorly poor health for over 10 years. Last June, I learned that I have MS. I have a lot of lesions, and they look like they were primarily laid down in two separate events. Still trying to learn how to tell my Ehler's-Danlos pain from fibro from MS. My neuro wants me on meds, so I am researching them now. I am also HSV+, which I guess can does not play well with MS. My doc prescribed Baclofen for me today. I have been in absolute agony most of the past week and a half and the word 'fatigue' is such an understatement! Anyway, nice to meet you. See you round the boards.

Since I am currently reading a book on vitamin D3, I wonder if you have had any nutrient tests – vitamin D, vitamin B12, iron, magnesium, zinc? Or others? MS patients are frequently low in these nutrients, and supplementing sometimes improves some symptoms.
