After training myself to avoid inflammatory foods, sleeping and exercising regularly, my MS has been very manageable.

What stands in the way is the treatment to slow the symptoms costs $87,000 twice a year. Why would pharmaceuticals want to create a cure and lose that income?

You are so right. I have ms for 7 years and have not touched ms drugs nor will I ever. Doing ok with diet and exercise

Thank you! I wanted to ask about GAIT. I have this and unfortunately there is no medicine from what I understand from my neurologist. Is this true?

Ampyra has helped me …. I think.
I noticed my gait is worse without it.
I’m grateful for whatever is being done but it’s very discouraging for me to listen to the first thing the man says is they don’t know what’s going on or what’s wrong so they couldn’t possibly know how to begin to treat or fix it
I’ve lived with MS for over 20 years, but possibly more like 35
It just became undeniable after the birth of my first child more than 20 years ago
