    I highly encourage you to listen to the audio book memoirs of Dave Bexfield Called sit down before reading and it is free on CZcams. It is in near real-time and it Chronicles his mis diagnosis of multiple sclerosis. Start with chapter one, and it will make you realize that the researchers are wasting their time and need to focus that all autoimmune diseases are a bacterial infection. Namely the one found in lyme disease. You don't need to be bitten by an infected tick to get it.. If your diet is making you feel better than great, but remember, multiple sclerosis has been around since the 19th century and it was way before processed foods.

    My doctor actually prescribed ampyra and baclofen. I take ampyra every 12 hours and baclofen as needed. He described baclofen as a muscle relaxer. I have noticed a fairly significant difference in my ability to move when taking ampyra vs when I don’t take it. It does help considerably. I did notice that it does seem to wear off after about 8-10 hours so it may be beneficial to take it sooner than every 12 hours.

    Do you have spasticity? That’s what I take baclofen for

      I took back often, because my right leg is very spastic when I walk. I would hope that it would help me, but it didn't when compared to Ampyra.

      I've had MS now for 11 years. The medication has helped it not progress quickly but I still have issues walking. I can walk but even walking to the mailbox. Takes a lot of effort. Especially when it's hot outside. Heat really makes my walking worse. I've even noticed that my right hand motor skills. Get really bad when the temperature rises. All in all, I'm doing pretty good except for my walking limitations.

    I have found that adaptive devices at home at times can make me insecure in other spaces where the setup doesn’t match up. Ultimately my brain gets a bit scrambled which become stressful in public. Any moments where everything feels completely new and unfamiliar ?

      It’s always a mental burden to plan anything outside of the home. I swear we have to think of 30+ things in advance and some are just potential situations to prepare in case they happen. I sometimes don’t leave the house because the burden isn’t worth it.

    Hi Johnny, do you know de Coimbra Protocol (Cícero Coimbra, a neurologist, physician from Brazil)? He developed, several years ago, a protocol to all autoimune diseases, he is more well known by his incredible results in MS patients. He treats patients with high doses of Vitamin D, because he discovered that all the autoimune diseases are related to Vitamin D defficience (it's a hormone, not a vitamin). Well, one of the things he says that conditions the treatment are long and hot showers! And that's how I've found you. I don't know if you can understand portuguese or brazilian, but try to search for his work. Cícero Coimbra - Vitamina D. There's also another channel on youtube from a Doctor that uses Coimbra's protocol (it is more complex than just taking extremely high doses of vitamin D), but also taking the gluten and sugar off the diet. The results are absolutely astonishing. Go and see for yourself. This is the channel : czcams.com/channels/O3qwlcPggTWdeJ-QgVp2Iw.html There you'll find many videos with patients recovering from autoimune diseases, but if you want to be more specifi, search: Esclerose Múltipla, that's how we say MS (multiple sclerosis) in Portuguese. I really hope that this information can help you to have a better life. Pedro Mar

      Thanks a lot for sharing. I haven't been officially diagnosed yet but I do have brain lesions and a ton of problems that makes me suspect MS. One of the problems is right after I take a shower I start shaking, visibly shaking. It's difficult for me to stand because my legs are shaking and weak and it's difficult for me to comb my hair because my hands are shaking. I also can't get into a sauna because of the same problem I feel like I'm going to pass out very quickly and then I'm so tired and shaky and it goes on for quite some time. Sometimes as long as a day. Thank you for sharing your experience so that I know that I'm not alone in all this. I'm really trying just to live a normal life but every day it seems like it's one more thing that I'm having trouble with. I just subscribed to your Channel.

    I am sorry for the loss of your friend.♡ I am grateful for the informative content that you are putting out. I appreciate your candid honesty. Thank you for producing these videos, so we can learn from your experiences. It is super comforting to know that there are others experiencing the same things. Without a diagnosis, and uncertainty about what these types of experiences are, one can feel quite crazy when these things happen, or when trying to explain it to others who aren't familiar with MS symptoms. Thanks again, and be well! ♡♡♡

    I agree with you. My problems were walking and balance mainly in the earlydays. No pain, no eye problems. Still after 18 years after diagnosis, use wheelchair all the time, drive a wheelchairvan with hand controls, I guess it was so gradual that I just adjusted and kept going. It is important to do everything while you can, then you aren't trying to do things when you can't. I'm happy and just rolling through life. I'm 62 years old now.
