      @mstrust Před 6 dny

      If your injector is broken, it is best to contact your MS nurse. You can find contact details on the map at (mstrust.org.uk/information-support/support-services/ms-services-near-me). Failing that, the drug is manufactured by Bayer (pulse.ly/vhtgv8kf4e). As the pens are designed for use with a specific medication, it is unlikely that you could get an injector without a prescription for Betaferon. MS Trust Enquiry Service

  • @carotha64
    @carotha64 Před 17 dny

    I have all the symptoms of MS (double vision too, but not optic neuritis). I’m struggling to walk, have severe muscle pain, mainly in my legs, weird numbness/loss of sensation that has been spreading for years now, nausea, dizzyness, gastrointestinal problems, problems with sexual dysfunction, problems with bladder and bowels, electric shock when I turn my head (not every time), unbearable itching whenever I get out of water or brush/bang against something… You name the MS symptom, I probably have it. My brother has MS, and he believes I do too. I do have lesions on my brain consistent with MS, but ALL my tests have been normal. We even did a lumbar puncture. Normal. So I have no diagnosis, and my doctors feel there isn’t anything else to do. But I was an athlete. I was a graceful dancer and martial artist. And suddenly, I lost it all. I can’t walk very far without cramping up, and if I push it, my legs will buckle and give out. I struggle even to push an empty grocery cart. It’s like my body doesn’t remember how to work. I’m really scared it will just keep getting worse. Meanwhile, no one believes me but my brother, and there is no treatment for me. I would do better with keg braces, but I can’t get my doctors to take me seriously. One said, “Let’s try Lyrica for merve pain, and maybe if you have less pain, you won’t have to walk so slowly.” I don’t walk slowly because it hurts! I walk slowly because my legs don’t work! I don’t know how else to say it! I’m scared and alone and feel like I’m watching life from the outside now.

    Most doctors act bothered or think the patient is a hypochondriac. I'm almost 50 and have brought up so many symptoms that I eventually stopped telling them. Recently my eye doctor told me I had something that she could see a my optic nerve that is linked to MS. That was only last week. I was there w a cane and an injury that I had no idea how it happened. So I'm glad she said something. I'm off of work w this mystery thing right now. I kind of dismissed my eye doctor at the time, but now reading up on it, a lot makes sense. If I get this as a diagnosis I won't be surprised, I might even be relieved. I've been tired for years. Wrote off my clumsiness as an ADHD symptom. I've had tingles and LOTS of twitching to the point of thinking I may later get Parkinson's. I'm adopted so I do not have family history. The doctor speaking- it looks like all of you have autoimmune issues, that's the link. Thank you for sharing your story and thank you all for the great information on this channel❤

Doctor said lets fix your classes first as they are off , and then lest wait to see if the eyes are going to be better . I am sure that this is a form of optic neuritis .

    Newly diagnosed and found your video! Thank you for posting this and showing the process. I needed a real life example of what actually happens. I haven’t started infusions yet but had my first phone call today discussing the details with my care team. SOOOOO much information was provided and after the call, I went on their website. They had a few videos, and I only could stomach two of them. They were exactly like all the generic pharmaceutical commercials that we see so much here in the States. I couldn't stomach the frolicking and exaggerated excitement to this MS infusion medication. (Honestly hate how much this is done with our medications in the states. It feels so icky). I appreciate you walking through the actual steps and showing what happens to you on infusion day. I am quite scared and anxious to start and this helped so much.

    Can anyone relate to these symptoms? The recent ones don't seem common ? First symptoms:I had a cluster of symptoms over 5 weeks (2 years ago) these symptoms only happened during those weeks: First was a sensation of suction around my eyeball. (I had my eyes checked and both were very heathy and 20/20 vision), Deep pain in leg muscles (like a fist), lost bladder control, forgot words, numbness on right side face and 1/2 tongue very numb and sometimes electricity in arms or legs. Following that I developed low grade fever that has persisted for 2 years. Randomly I'll have very numb patches that last for a day or a few days. Then 3 months after that initial "attack" my right eye developed a Scotoma (grey circle in lower vision), this persisted for another 6months with sometimes pain. Eye tests showed retina is good and don't see inflammation of optic verve. 3 weeks ago that Scotoma changed into a central vision blur, kind of greyish smudge. At the same day my left eye developed grey smudges and I had a sparkling headache on the left side of my face. The last random symptom are canker sores only on my tonsils. They reappear every 2-2.5 weeks, one on each tonsil. (Tested for other factors like STDs and those are all negative.) Blood work is "fine" Iron is within limits but working to raise it. Thanks for reading this story!

    You can continue a normal life, you have to accept MS yourself before expecting anyone else too. From experience people who don't know anyone close to them with MS will not understand and possibly never will. All I would say is be strong and get used to needles, you will get used to MRI Scans, blood tests and infusions and it's nothing to worry about. My first signs were loss of feeling in my right side and urgency to pee. I have my Ocrevus infusion next week and bloods taken this week. I take Gabapentin every night among other medications. MS affects my bladder which means I catheterize every day otherwise I wet the bed at night. I have a wife and family who understand but don't give me an easy ride and why should they as it keeps me on my feet. A lumbar puncture is the method of detecting MS so I can only advise people who have been for a number of MRI's with no result, get referred for a lumbar puncture, not a pleasant experience although I had a junior doctor practice on myself and actually had 3 lumbar punctures in one sitting. Everyone has their own MS story. Stay strong MS Warriors!!!!!!

    MS Hug

  • @daltsav
    @daltsav Před měsícem

    For acouple of years now i have this problem when i sit up or flex my rib muscles in any way it immediately goes into a painful spasm that i have to arch my torso back wards and squeeze really hard to get it to dissipate. The muscles contraction can be visible on either side of my solar plex. It only happens when i flex. Is this a description of the MS hug? Ive recently developed horrible virtigo, ill have it for a week or so and then it goes away only to come back a month or so later. I have pain that comes and goes too but ive not had an MS diagnosis.

    • @mstrust
      @mstrust Před měsícem

      Hi, Thanks for sharing what's been going on with you. It's possible it could be the MS hug. The sensation of the MS hug can be caused by the muscles in between your ribs spasming. In MS, this is caused by damage to the nerves which means messages from your brain to other parts of the body get a bit confused. Some people do notice certain things that trigger the MS hug, such as fatigue, stress and temperature changes. It's possible that posture/certain positions may be a trigger for you. It's always important to get any chest pain checked out by a doctor. Do also speak to your doctor about the symptoms you've been experiencing, so they can start some investigations and work out the cause. We have a blog on the MS hug which you might find useful: mstrust.org.uk/news/what-is-ms-hug We have another page on it here too: mstrust.org.uk/a-z/ms-hug These pages contain some tips on things you can do to try and ease the MS hug and make yourself more comfortable. If you'd like to hear other people's experiences of the MS hug, you can join our Facebook group and post a question on there: facebook.com/groups/multiplesclerosistrust/ I hope you find this info useful. Best wishes, Gemma, MS Trust Helpline ask@mstrust.org.uk

    I have MS and I’m disappointed by the lack of humorous videos about it online. When I look up multiple sclerosis on CZcams the videos are mostly so seriousss, it’s a drag. Maybe I should make some funny videos and contribute! Loved his jokes.

    I am also Swedish and work in both the USA and the UK. I find myself switching languages ​​in the middle of a conversation. Only occasional words and phrases, but enough to make it embarrassing. It was added after Covid19 (which I survived).

    In talking with my MS nurse instead of taking a stimulant laxative after 7 to 10 days without a bm and all the gut cramping and stool like goat pellets or pebbles from the size of raw garbanzo to the size of an egg. With lots of cramping and 30 to 45 minutes to clear the bowl. To taking a hydro-scobic laxative daily and with each glass of miti-lax to drink an additional glass of water. I also keep a daily bm journal as to any medication change may affect my regularly. I recently had a flare that involved a high dose steroids for 2 weeks. This is known to cause Constipation and after 5 days wo movement I need to double my daily mira-lax and water consumption. Avoiding PoP and any added sugar. Only natural hole food and no salt or prosse flour. Having a more regular bm with daily mira-lax is so refreshing. No hours of cramping and pushing any more.
