Dealing with Multiple Sclerosis

Posted by bwjones85 @bwjones85, Apr 1 6:39am

Hello, I’m new to multiple sclerosis. I suffer from a lot of discomfort, pain, numbness, tingling and weakness. I was formally diagnosed with MS relapsing, and remitting December 2024, even though I was told I may have it in January 2024. It feels like I have more relapses than remissions. I have started treatment, but seems like I cannot get much relief.

Hello,
I am sorry you are suffering with this disease, but give it time for any treatment. Not sure what they have you on right now, but definitely talk with your neurologist and if they can't answer to your needs/symptoms, find a new one. Physical Therapy helps me the most and I am on Ocrevus. God Bless!

I don't understand how a neurologist can help someone with scoliosis?

Don't put a lot of faith in the medical system. Be an advocate for yourself and continually look for alternative treatments. There's a lot of money in Pharmaceuticals....too much money to ever find a "cure" for cancer and auto immune diseases.
