Thank you for the information and for your service to help people who have M.S. I've had m.s since 2000 went on medication for a long time now I have a better idea of what to do thank you for all your hard work
I have Severe Spasticity in my Lower Left Leg & sometimes in my Lower Right Leg, but there is no Pain! & it Only occurs when I’m sitting or laying down. Once I stand, it’s fine! I guess everyone is different?
It almost seems like they don't want to find the root cause. Instead, they (Doctors) rely on Pharma (their boss) to keep people buying drugs for life! Zero respect & zero dollars given to the MS society & pill-pushing doctors. The last disease the AMA cured was polio....that's when they learned their lesson & realized every patient cured was a customer lost!
Turn to food. Meds aren't the only option. Check out the Wahls Protocol, created by a female doctor that had SPMS. Now she bikes & runs marathons, in addition to running clinical trials to PROVE to doctors that one of the major root causes is food. What happens when a foreign object gets in your body? The body attacks it. What if a majority of food that people eat (Standard American Diet AKA SAD diet) are seen by the body as foreign objects? The body attacks!! Only eat non inflammatory food & your body has little reason to attack itself. Seems much smarter than destroying the immune system... you know, the thing that keeps us healthy? DMDs should be used as a last resort.
Okay so I learned from your website (thank you!) that my grandmother has flexor spasticity. She hasn't walked on her own for over a decade. About two years ago her legs became locked in a bended position where her heels reach her bum. She is always in pain... 😔 Her occupational therapist recommends stretching but it hurts her so much. 💔 I'm going to try to massage her before hand and see if that helps. Do you guys have any information about the effectiveness of massage for this issue? We will be going to a doctor soon to find out which medicine can help to stretch her legs back out. Hopefully we can replace her baclofen because it doesn't really seem to work.
I think that I would really benefit from a recumbent exercise bike for the spasticity in my legs, but I cannot afford a good one. Does anyone know if Medicare could provide one?
I'd love to see research being done that didn't include drugs...WHY ARE PEOPLE GETTING MS??? How can we treat w/o drugs? What is the root cause of MS? I understand its a difficult question to answer but are they even trying????
It is caused by the immune system attacking the myelin sheath of motor nurons. I think they are making immune-modulator drugs to make the immune system quit creating autoantibodies.
I have 2 bottles of those but when the cramps come on I can barely move to get to them. Also I have an active 4yr old and sedation with this medicine isn't an option.
I was having spasms in my feet Flexeril did not help at all. The Dr's could see the muscles spasming and nothing from Flexeril. It's crazy how someone can get so much benefit from meds and some don't get any for the same thing.. I hope you keep getting relief and thanks for sharing your story..
Yes Mary Lynn I was diagnosed 2 years ago with rrms with basically MRI only and blood work to rule out other conditions. Since my diagnosis I had to retire from my job this past year on disability. Yes I'm still bringing in a steady income but it definitely turned my life upside down to say the least. I live in Syracuse New York and last summer I went to Rochester for a second opinion and they labeled me is PP MS while my neurologist here still considers me rrms. One thing I learned I'm having this condition is it seems like you're always being pulled into 50 different directions. God bless and hope you well
Hi, yes I was diagnosed just by MRI alone 12 years ago. Everything happened very quickly and I'd had numbness and weakness in the left hand side of my body. They saw me straight away in A&E and that's when they referred me for my MRI scan and I was diagnosed in July 2008. I've since been on the Lemtrada trial for 11 years and have just completed the trial this year. If anyone is interested I've done a channel to help others with their MS 🧡
I couldn't help but laugh at the commentator who looks bored or like she just woke up from a nap, or who looks like she is trying not to fall asleep every time the camera comes back to her

After all these years and research billions of dollars of MS walks and still using the same old school meds in 2019.
Unbelievable.

What's it called when one of your legs starts frailing around wildly with a mind of its own for about 3 seconds?

Trauma. Read the body keeps the score.

If a corporation profits from your illness . . .
I already have Fatigue, I don’t need Meds to make it worse...
Flexeril works wonders for chronic muscle spasms

JESUS CHRIST is your healer
Yeah, right.
I agree Grace, but to further explain this people need hope.
God doesn’t heal everyone on earth so this information is important
I couldn't help but laugh at the commentator who looks bored or like she just woke up from a nap, or who looks like she is trying not to fall asleep every time the camera comes back to her
She has MS
Me too😂😂😂
Anyone else notice the face the interviewer was making while listening to the NP😂😂!? She needs to work on her face.
Stop sugars

You just don't get it. Educate yourself, please.
