Is There a Cure For Multiple Sclerosis? | Cure for MS
Starting ocrevus soon! Very helpful to hear your experience and helpful to hear the other lifestyle changes that have helped too! (So interesting to hear how hard it is to see a neurologist in the UK because it’s the exact same here in the US) wishing you the best ✨
Do you still take the meds or is it pure looking after yourself now that's helping you?
Cool!!😊 This is much better than 6 hours. Hour drive to and from hospital.
Tysabri was amazing for me Copaxonne awful lollie meds Ocrevus is okay not the greatest. Crap gap is awful. Ocrevus helps with lessions not symptoms I'm looking at kesimpta
Great video Tom. I didn't know you had MS. Good for you for doing vids to help others. I already saw you vid on Fasting Mimicking Diet. Good for you for turning a negative into a positive.
Nobody talks about ms hug, first symptom
Is it good to take antiinflammatories before taking those MS drugs
I am in the process of diagnosis and the truth is I am super scared, but it makes me feel good to hear that you are fine today, it is very scary to face this, thank you for helping me to be a little less afraid. I hope you are very well
Hope you're doing well mate
Yeah I'm really good thanks! Hope you are too
Just a quick question. I'm 33 years old. healthy guy, but I had a kidney stone in my CT scan.it also showed multiple sclerotic focus on my left ischium and bones.i some times feel numbness in my left fingers. Other wise no symptoms. I do regular jogging for 1 hour. Weight training too. Although My vitamin d was too low.What should I do further to prevent it?
Iv need diagnosed with in the last year I’m not worried there nothing I can do about it
How long you Are on ocrevus
Hey Tom, new viewer and I wanted to thank you for sharing your story. I am in the part of the story where the symptoms are all pointing in the direction of MS but we are just waiting for the diagnosis. 29 year old male. Main difference between the videos I've seen on your channel and where I am now is that you were at a much better weight from the jump and I am looking to improve my health. I want to get in front of everything and I am going to go full steam on the Best Bet Diet. I would love to hear exactly what foods, specifically proteins, work best and worst for you. Also, I see at the end they include desserts, do you ever have desserts? I fear that even Gluten, Dairy, and Soy free products seem counter intuitive so I'd love your feed back. Thanks!
No probs, glad you are finding value! 🙏 That' s great to hear that you are looking to get ahead of it and improve your health! Going to benefit your life in the long run like it has mine. But yes I have ended up on somewhat of a modified Best Bet Diet as time has progressed and I've picked up other health knowledge over time. So I actually put quite a heavy focus on proteins and don't shy away from saturated fats anymore - even though it says so in the best bet diet. This is mainly as I have researched and tried the carnivore diet, I am utilising some of the best factors of that diet. Plus Myelin is actually built of Cholesterol, so it makes no sense to me to try to limit animal fats. In terms of dessert I will at special occasions have vegan cream with a complaint dessert, but usually something baked myself that isn't filled with all the other crap. As I agree with you the free from products aren't the best and are heavily processed. So in general I would say just focus on whole foods that are best bet diet compliant and you'll do just great!
I'm so happy for you! May I kindly ask you, why did you stop carnivore ( that's how I found you on the 1 place)? Was the last video about quitting it was also the time you completely stopped? Really curious because about to go carnivore 😅
@@julesyan6353 yes in that last vid I pretty much explain why, but it was quite a few factors really… the cost, lack of variety were the main ones. Also my girlfriend really didn’t want to continue because she struggled more and would be difficult for us to be on completely different diets! Definitely open to trying it again in the future and maybe being scripted without the fruit as maybe that was why I didn’t see the big benefits! Wishing you luck, are you doing it to overcome an autoimmune condition?
@tomgarbett77 thank you for reply. I have different neurological and autoimmune symptoms, not diagnosed yet.
this is great
Great news!
Thanks Jenny!
Fantastic clear video- great explanation. I know firsthand how much research goes into finding out what works for you and the differing advice can be overwhelming. I'm doing all that you are doing except the Wahl's protocol instead of the 'best bet diet.' I am also doing oxygen therapy but until I stop it it's hard to know if it's working. I found Gary Brecka fascinating and did the DNA test. The results show I have the gene associated with MS so I'm now beginning to supplementing with the suggested methylated vitamins- hopefully I'll see the benefits in the coming months. You are 2 years ahead of me on this journey and your positivity and hope has really helped me- thank you.
Ah that's great to hear! But yes I have considered doing the Gary Brecka DNA test too. What Methylated vitamins are suggested to overcome the MS gene? Also were you positive for the MTFR gene? Great to hear that you are doing similar to me, how are you finding Wahl's protocol?
@@tomgarbett77 Yes, I was positive for the MTHFR gene. Methylfolate was a key one for the gene. I also have an issue converting a few other vitamins (mainly vit D and B12) I take a 50,000 IU of D3 and a methylated mutivitamin. I take a few other vitamins as suggested by the report but it's only been 2 days- hopefully I see the benefit in time. I moved from the 'overcoming MS diet' to the Wahl's Protocol. Too early to say if there is any improvement but it seemed more aligned to the vitamins I was lacking. Only thing I'm not sure about is eggs. It's a no on the Wahl's diet. Regardless, I think all the suggested MS diets have their merits. No gluten, no dairy and no sugar are the 3 pillars for me.
Would love to hear from you and find out more about this!
Very happy for you. Thank you so much for your videos!!
Appreciate that! I will keep them coming! What should I talk about next?
Great to hear. Out of interest what magnesium do you take and at what dosage? There are so many types.
@@andrewwyatt534 thanks Andrew! 🙌 I take magnesium glycinate as that has a very good absorption rate from what I’ve read
Lumbar puncture yesterday for suspected MS. Arrogant Dr, hit a few nerves but im glad its over. My entire body has a headache right now and i cant sleep or do much.
Keep it up, Tom 👍🏼 Peace and Love, Everyone! ❤
Cheers Kevin! And thanks for the positivity!
whats the diet called?
It is called the Best Bet Diet for MS. It's worked really well for me and for thousands of others. Definitely worth checking it out and I also have other videos on my channel explaining the diet in more detail. But let me know any questions!
@@tomgarbett77 on what video of yours, whats the title?
Such great news Tom! So glad you are doing well! It is amazing how diet and lifestyle changes can help. I went 10 years between relapse and am currently on an eight year run with no relapses. I am doing 5 things in addition to my medication; I eat a whole food plant based diet, exercise regularly, try to get good sleep, practice mindfulness, and take supplements under the guidance of my neurologist and naturopathic doctor.
Well done 👍 Tom great, food is important to heal any type of illness
Agreed! Which is why I put it first on the list as I do believe it is the most important factor. Are you on any specific diet for an illness?
Why omit soya and chick peas? Can you present an example of a weeks menu that you might undertake please?
The reason they are omitted from the diet is due to the high amount of lectins that are in legumes, which can cause leaky gut and autoimmunity. I do have some videos showing what I eat in a day that you cn check out, but I will try put together a more comprehensive video!
Good on ya mate, glad you're doing well like me. Four years for me since my initial diagnosis-relapse free on Mavencald/Cladribine. Possibly relapse free for free without needing any more medication! OMS has worked for me, the mindset side of de-stressing whether that's by exercise or meditation is super powerful.
You're doing incredibly well! Very happy to hear you are keeping it under control :)
@@__Wanderer thanks! Yep everything I am doing seems to be working 🙏
Congratulations, I’m glad you are doing so well.
@@kathytaylor1102 cheers Kathy, hope you are well too!
Great to hear you are doing so well, and remaining vibrant. 👍
Thanks appreciate the kind words!
So my wife had vertigo...I guess a flare up. Multiple times.... She thinks I'm lying. It's so weird tbh.
That is strange. So have you been diagnosed and yet your wife is denying it? It can be difficult sometimes which is why it is known as an invisible disease, so maybe that's why.
@@tomgarbett77 She had a Dr. Refer her a year ago... She denies it, and she fell down last year. Vertigo. Memory. Cognitive fog. Apnea. I'm wondering if it's just progressing faster. She was okay until she couldn't smell or taste for 5 months with Covid. Then a rapid change.
MS is so annoying... my wife is confused about it. Denying it. Have you heard of that? Over 15 months now.
Congrats!!!! That is so nice to hear!
@@anntastic1501 thanks Ann! 🙏🙏
Wow I’m late to the party… had no idea they came out with this and I’ve been on Ocrevus for 4 years! It’s exciting news to me. I’ll have to research availability in the U.S.
I’m so sorry that you had to go through a lumbar puncture, I thankfully didn’t. Just the MRI and history. I’m now suffering a major relapse and in a lot of pain. I know things will get better.
Hi Tom. Thank you for very informative videos. A firend of a friend has MS, so this was very good. - Some years back I suffered from CFS/ME, but I managed to fight that and come back strong and healthy.
Keto diet really helps. No sugar, no processed foods, no seed oils. Eat meat, fruit and veggies only, and eggs and cheese and yogurt. Use butter, not margarine, and olive oil only. R ALPHA LIPOIC ACID helps with demilinnation (nerve pain, numbness, and itching) and bentophotomine. Vitamin D and B vitamins.
How you doing now Tom? I have MS too
Hi, as you told that your first symptom was numbness from elbow to wrist, how long it lasted, could you please tell me?
Thank you for the video I’m happy to hear that everything is stable 👍🏻♥️ My doctor said at end of the month I have to choose between ocrevus or kesimpta 💔🥹 I was going to choose kesimpta because I hate my doctor and the hospital that was a good reason for me 😂 but with this news it’s getting hard to choose between them + my doctor didn’t give any information I have to search but English is my second language so it hard to know everything especially medical terminology. If there’s any advice from anyone can help me ❤ stay strong 💪🏻
Have you tried Coimbra protocol? It’s basically much higher vitamin D3 doses. I’ve been trying 20-40 thousand IU of D3+K2 and magnesium, omega3, B complex, choline. I had a very bad relapse in June and now after 1,5 months of Coimbra protocol I feel amazing, I did blood test, my Vitamin D is 81 now and calcium is in norm. So I will stick to it from now on.
Hi Tom thanks for making the video been quite helpful. I’ve seen 3 doctors now and finally on the waiting list to see a neurologist. My symptoms started with my eyesight seemed to happen overnight couldn’t make out the figures on my screens but didn’t think to much of it. Then I’ve had numbness and tingling felt like prickly heat and static electric sensation which spread up my back into arms, also major fatigue and trying to walk felt like I was trying to walk under water. Also had a squeezing sensation in the tricep area and bolts of pain. Wish I’d of gone to A&E now my numbness started in April but didn’t get my referral till July and on a 18 week waiting list.
I wish you well brother
Thank goodness for A&E. That was ultimately how I began my journey to diagnosis too!
I have fought MS for over 50 years NO meds ever. to slow it down.
So is not new treatment just new form of the same drug.
Yeah it's a new treatment option as in completely different dosage and way of administering, but the overall drug and it's effects are the same.
I was expecting an actual new treatment. But this is cool. I'm looking forward to Frexalimab, NVG-300, and Lucid MS.
Yeah so was I! I mean it is a new option but not an entirely new treatment I guess. Yeah Lucid MS really excites me with the capability to rebuild Myelin
I've just seen your video even though it's a couple of years old, so helpful I really like how you explain things and shoulders a demonstration of the type of food you were eating, really appreciated your insight and explanation. Want to know more of your story, you look a picture of health I hope you continue to be strong and healthy.
Hi Tom, have you heard of/read Hal Huggins book and his research on MS?
No I haven't, interested to find out what his research does say.
@@tomgarbett77 Its quite a lot to explain on here but its definitely worth looking into. I came across you when I was approved for Ocrevus out here in South Africa this year but haven't started it yet as came across this other protocol which i have now managed to do and so seeing how that goes first. If you send me your number or email i can explain more. "Solving the MS Mystery" by Hal Huggins or "Hidden Epidemic" by Thomas Levy are good places to start. This documentary also gives some nice back ground in simple terms: ruclips.net/video/vGusDIvEHAo/видео.html Essentially it all relates to your oral health and the dental work one has had and then the process of undoing that in the right way. Resonated with me as i had metal fillings, root canals and cavities after previous wisdom extractions. By all means give me a shout though.
Thanks for the update and you do look well! I was only diagnosed earlier this year and I am not on any treatment yet. Ocrevus was recommended for me but I declined as I did not like the side effect profile. This news will probably not have any direct impact on me until I decide to start treatment but it will perhaps lead to greater convenience for others. Tom, may I ask out of interest and for comparison with my own MS management, how many times a year do you have an appointment with a neurologist?
Ah right, what side effects worry you most about Ocrevus? I found it to have the least side effects compared to other treatments when I was comparing. In terms of appointments with my neuro, it's about once a year at best! Is that the same with you?
@@tomgarbett77 Yes, my neurology appointments will be once a year now too but I do have an appointment with the clinical nurse specialist in between. I thought once a year to see the neurologist seems like a long time. Regarding the Ocrevus, I read on Wikipedia of all places that the rate of cancer in people on Ocrevus is as much as 3 times higher than patients given a placebo. I worry about serious infections as well that I have heard of some Ocrevus patients getting. I did ask the neurologist specifically about PML which seems deadly and terrifying and he said he had only had one PML patient in his rather long career. Knowing my luck, if I was on Ocrevus I would probably be his second.
@@rosieposie9564 Yeah it is frustrating and really should be more regular appointments in my opinion. Also my neurologist always seems to be running behind when I have an appointment and tries to get me in and out as quickly as possible! Yeah I knew there was an increase in breast cancer from trials. And PML is much strongly associated with Tysabri than it is Ocrevus, so I think you would be fine in that case. But I do think the end goal with me is to not be any treatment because at the end of the day you are tampering with your own immune system which can't be good!
@@tomgarbett77 I am not supremely impressed with my MS neurologist either. Before my care was handed over to him, I was being seen by a general neurologist who was much more thorough and attentive. Not being on treatment is a gamble. I am just hoping my diet and lifestyle changes will be enough to keep me relapse free for a while at least. I hope that the trials of the BTK inhibiters will be successful as I think I might like them better than the drugs which are currently on the market. I think we all would rather not be on any immune system tampering treatment but I am glad the Ocrevus is keeping your MS stable.
This sounds fab.
Yeah I think it's positive! Are you on Ocrevus?
No, I used to be on copaxone, but I'm not on a DMT at present.
@@hilarykerr7383 Are you doing well without treatment then?
@@tomgarbett77 I'm ok, but my fatigue and dizzy spell were better when on DMT. The consultant seems reluctant to give me anything which was the case when I was first diagnosed at the age of 50.
Thanks for the update. Hope all is well.
No probs! Yeah I'm all good thanks, hope you are too?
