    My dad has been living with MS since he was 45. He is currently 89. Keep up the faith! My dad did a special diet (low fat--The Swank Diet) and took Cod Liver Oil supplements and that is one of the reasons we think that he has done so well. Cheers!

      Give it up for Dr. Swank. We live in Portland, and saw him within weeks of my wife's diagnosis 32 years ago. She's still getting around on her walker, and has good days/not so good days, but what a wonderful attitude she has. Attitude has been a major part in her approach to MS.

I'm 64, and have noticed a big decline in my balance and cognitive capabilities over the past three years. Your videos have offered me hope.

      If you haven't done so, please have your Dr. order bloodwork to check your B12 level. A severe deficiency can mimick MS as well as dementia. Before being diagnosed, I had pins and needles sensation in my feet, my balance was terrible and my memory was getting really bad. Once I was diagnosed with a B12 deficiancy, I was started on 1ml cyanocobolimin injections once a month for the rest of my life. The symptoms improved greatly.

    Wow what a fantastic GP you have👍I started to feel off in summer 2016 with aches and pains in my feet, legs, hands, arms, shoulders, up the back of my neck running upto the crown of my head and very fatigued. I battled through until October 2016 and wen't to my GP but got nothing but fob off's and i think i must have visited 6 times throughout Oct and November but just got fobbed off time and time again. On boxing day 2016 i had my 1st dizzy spell. In January 2017 all my symptoms got much, much worse and all through March, April, May and June 2017 i had severe pains in my legs and the dizziness and off balance was also getting more and more intense. I had to stop working and all throughout those months from March i was going to my GP atleast every other week but got fobbed off. At the end of July all my symptoms were constant and also my dizziness/unbalance was non stop plus my arms were totally dead and lots of muscle twitching. August my feet wen't dead, my face was tingling and wen't dead, so off balance i couldn't stand up so my Partner phoned an ambulance they took me straight to A&E as they thought i'd had a stroke. I spent all evening in A&E and discharged at 6am being told it could be a vascular problem and my GP would be told to do an urgent referral to see a vascular consultant. It took my GP 2 weeks to do this and when he did he did a choose and book non urgent referral with the 1st available appt mid December which was nearly 4 months. I had to fight and push and finally got my vascular appt after 10 weeks, how can that be urgent?! I had some tests befor i met the vascular consultant and it was all normal so i was told by the vascular consultant to tell my GP to do a neurology refferal. When i spoke to my GP and told him he said shall i do an ENT refferal because of your dizziness and off balance and i said NO do the neurology appt as the vascular consultant said so my GP was still ignoring my aches, pains and all my other symptoms. The referral was done at the end of Oct and i waited for 30+ weeks and during my wait i spoke to my GP 19 times begging for help. In the end i even had to complain and my a nuisance of myself or it was going to be 38 weeks. The neurologist was a very blasay and got much of what i told him wrong from what i told him on the letter i got after the consultation. He ordered an MRI of my head and neck which i had 2 weeks later and got the results yesterday which was 5 weeks after the scan and to add insult to injury it was dated 2 weeks ago.
    Anyway they have found something on my brain which was all written in medical jargon and looking it up it's consistent with MS and the letter states i will be seen again but no indication of when or anything.
    Thanks for the video and i will be watching your others👍👍

      I hope you are feeling alright and coping well. I am almost convinced that's what is wrong with me, but no diagnosis yet. I have an MRI soon, and appt with neurologist. I started with numbness & till in my toes, then my legs (both), the progressively went about my whole body. I've went to the dr for numerous tests & appts. They kept saying it was my lower back, 2 MRI's just showed a small bulging disks. Then I experienced the crushing, squeezing in my stomach/chest. Went to the er, followed up with a cardiologist. They diagnosed it as stress. I have days when I can't hardly walk, coordination is off, extremely fatigued I'm usually a VERY active person. I drop things all day and stumble around. My face, legs, abdomen, and mist of my body stays numb and tingly most of the time, for 8 months now. I've seem a hematologist, chiropractor, family physician, cardiologist, with still no answers. I finially went to my family Dr last week with a List of my symptoms, and demanded some real help or answers. MS terrifies me... BUT not knowing what is happening to me is even more scarier. 😕

      I have multiple progressive chronic illnesses including neurological ones with symptoms very similar to MS. It is hard not knowing. I'm 24 and have become more and more disabled since I was 14, and doctors haven't been able to help much, but I'm always finding ways to adapt. Know that it's totally okay to get sad and/or angry sometimes and you don't always have to "stay positive!" Know that you're not alone and the chronic illness community online is very supportive (I've got many wonderful in-person friends who I initially bonded with over chronic illness/disability stuff too). It's not easy and I respect that. We are much stronger than we often realise. I'm not giving advice since you didn't ask, but just want to offer reassurance and solidarity🥄❤

    As you say, the symptoms are so subtle to begin with. I thought it was in my head and took a massive relapse for me to realise something was very wrong. Symptoms since 2010, diagnosed in 2012 when I woke up one morning numb from the waist down. No major relapses like that since (now in 2017) and under control with daily Copaxone injections. It's a bumpy ride though. Love to anyone going through this.

    I was diagnosed with double vision at 8 years old, then when I was around 15/16 I had a random episode where my feet felt like I was walking on pins and needles. It was so bad I had to go to the ER and the doctors couldn’t explain why it happened, either. Over the years, I would also have abnormal menstrual cycles that caused the joints in my fingers to lock leaving me unable to bend my fingers. Over the last few months I’ve had tremors in my legs, face, and fingers. Along with tingling sensations in my hands, legs, and arms. I suddenly also have had urinary leakage and it always feels like I’m going to pee on myself. Not to mention losing balance after standing in a single spot for a minute or two and even slight slurring of some words. The latest thing is stiffness in my right thumb. I keep feeling like I’m a hypochondriac, but after reading comments I’m glad to see I’m not alone. Hopefully I will be able to have some answers soon. Thank you for this!

    Aloha Paul, Thanks so much for your postings. I have watched up thru your " More MS Symptoms". Your information is all so helpful. I am not yet diagnosed with MS but after doing some research think it is a possibility. I am waiting to get an appointment with a neurologist. My symptoms are very similar to what you have experienced. The symptoms that made me concerned started with the tingling in the right toe to complete foot, then started traveling up my lower leg with tingling varying in intensity sometimes to the point of pain. It now has traveled up my thigh to my groin. I also have areas that are cold at times but my right foot is always cold (it usually isn't cold to the touch but feels cold). This has happened in the past 2 months. I have had 3 episodes in the past week 2 1/2 weeks. As you were discussing as I look back I wonder if thing in the past couple years were also precursors. Up until this past year I would consider I was a healthy person walking 2-6 miles a day and lots of snorkeling. Just yesterday I had an experience like you described when running for the train. Your description of the weakness, fatigue etc was spot on how I felt trying to walk back to car. That was the point when I decided I couldn't go back to work that day. I have a few questions if you get a chance to respond I would love to get your perspective.
    Have you had any difficulty with your eyes? I don't have any symptoms in my eyes.
    Are you able to drive?
    Are you to the point where you can walk ok most days?
    Are you able to work now?
    I live in Hawaii and am having trouble getting a neurologist appointment. Only one on our island and can't get in till May. If Oahu doesn't have appointment soon considering flying to mainland US. How critical do you think it is to get in soon? I am thinking a month or less is reasonable.
    My best wishes to you. I hope you keep posting, the info provided has been the most helpful information I have found.
    Lynn

    I'm 25 and I've been diagnosed with multiple sclerosis after being in the hospital for 2 weeks. I'd developed the syndrome two years ago but just ignored it because I thought it was a normal thing. But suddenly my left side went numb from head to toe, and I couldn't walk normally. My leg just feels weak, and that's when I start thinking of going to the clinic. From the clinic, I was referred to the hospital, where I did a MRI brain scan and later proceeded to do a lumbar puncture to find the problem. At the end, I was told that I have multiple sclerosis and am now on steroids.

I have more or less the same symptoms as you and only now understand that it's 99.9% definitely ms and that I've had it for many years without realising!The problem is, the doctors I've been to don't take me seriously at all and I've run out of energy to fight with them anymore. I simply can't understand their attitude, I had one basic mri that didn't show any thing so now they just say that there's nothing wrong with me. After I recently saw my main GP and told him I had no balance now at all he suggested I go to dance classes to "cheer " myself up !!Please can you put me in touch with your GP, I don't care how far I have to travel I desperately need help while I still have enough function and motivation to be able to do so.

    Wow what an eye opener, I am so sorry this guy is going through this, one of those things you just deal through it best you can.
    I have a question up here for anyone who could answer it I'd be very thankful.
    So here is the thing: I have been having recurring ER Visits as far back as 2010. I can best describe it as AN ARRAY OF SYMPTOMS THAT MAKE ME FEEL VERY ILL AND THEN I END UP IN THE EMERGENCY ROOM, out of all the symptoms I have I would have to say that the most alarming to me is:
    1)- Inability to (or sensation that) I cant breathe properly or labored breathing, similar to Hypoxia
    2)- Blurry Vision.
    3)- Loss of sensation along with tingles in whole leg also arms and sometimes face and head as well.
    4)- Mental Fog or confusion. I feel very "slowed down" and confused.
    **************************** So these are the most concerning to me out of all my symptoms *******************************
    The rest of these symptoms include:
    5)- Clumsiness, I may keep dropping my phone or keys and such.
    6)- Anxiety, because this shit is very scary to me while it occurs and every time it does it feels as though I may die literally.
    7)- Frequent urination.
    8)- Sensation of having to go do a "#2" in the restroom but then suddenly not being able to.
    9)- Hot and cold sensations very unstable and usually in my hands and feet.
    10)- Shivering or shaking.
    11)- Tremors or twitches, spasms in my neck, jaw, hands.
    ***************************** So this is what I have been dealing with AND IGNORING MOSTLY WHEN IT HAPPENS for a pretty long time I would agree, and the worse thing is everyone seems to immediately say "Its Just Anxiety". I myself am not ruling out anything ! however I must say that I have had numerous Emergency room visits and the Staff there have not even suggested an exam to determine MS or not and as of lately very recently my symptoms seem to have got worse very rapidly, I wake up with numbness and tingling and dizziness. Can anyone drop a suggestion or enlighten me here ? (No one in my family I know of has had MS)
    Thank you to the people of YTube here =D and I wish everyone great health and success I HOPE AND WISH FOR NO ONE to undergo this kind of disease it is a very scary proposition to think that you may have or have MS and the people who do have them seem to be real fighters !!! Thanks everyone now.

    • @Ane127
      @Ane127 Před 4 lety +1

      Julie Wake We have always had cures, but the allopathic doctors/MDs are trained to sell drugs. In other words, MDs manage our diseases using pharmaceuticals as opposed to curing us. The pharmaceutical industry hijacked the medical system over 100 years ago and has been suppressing cures ever since. Natural cures cannot be patented, which means the pharmaceutical industry cannot profit off of them. Conventional medical system is just a business. The conventional medical system is not going to jump on this because they will go out of business, which is what is happening anyway.
      Also, keep in mind that societies such as the MS Society are just front organizations for the pharmaceutical industry. They also help to suppress the cures.
      Long story short: The conventional medical system is a fraud. Go outside of the system to the complementary and alternative “quackery” for which there is allegedly “no evidence” in order to be cured.

      Dont know if this will help but in countries close to equator hardly any ms but in northern ones like scandinavia it is highest rate. There has been some talk about vit D as without enough we do not get to REM stage of sleep and that is when the body heals itself somithing to do with growth hormone. So it might be worth taking this vitamin. Also antioxidents help especially the purple coloured ones like blackcurrents etc. as they help reduce inflamation. Also worth mentioning turmeric and corriander too.

Neurologist was very doubtful about MS and he was correct! Turns out my disc between C3 and C4 in my neck was completely blown out and was bruising and pinching off my spinal column. I was scheduled quickly for fusion surgery and had it fused. It’s a massive difference! The leg problems didn’t go away, but from another MRI discovered my L3/4 are bad as the vertebrae are out of place and have been for probably 30 years. That surgery I’m waiting of for a while, don’t really need it yet. I strongly encourage all with the MS symptoms to see the neurologist about the possibility of bad discs in the cervical region of the spine.

I ended up in the hospital and they said it was a silent migraine, with aura. But I've been off balance recently and I've had a numbness in my face. I can't do anything without forgetting what I'm doing even though it's something I know how to do.

    I wish my doctor's were as proactive as this guys.. I've had stroke type symptoms since dec 18(whole right sided numbness, tingling, slurred speech, can't talk at times, dizzy, confused, can't write for very long with a pen which is terrible considering I'm an artist like why couldn't this affect my left side?? I also have decreased sensation on my right side among a lot of other symptoms) mid to post viral infection, possibly encephalitis according to my doc. I was extremely ill and had a fever of 103 for 5 days and horrible head and neck pain, I felt like I was going to die. Anyway, all I get is negative tests besides a high sed rate and shrug. Ugh. The only test they did was an MRI at the very start of my symptoms back in Jan and they even said at the ER themselves if it were a stroke it could take days to show up. Possibly myelitis according to the ER doc but recommended I see my primary. Primary thinks it's seizures and sends me to a neurologist..I had an EEG with normal brain function and EMG done and it showed abnormalities in my leg muscle but again I got a shrug from the neurologist and said maybe I should go to the Mayo clinic. Why am I posting this on an MS video? Well I found out that a viral infection could aggravate an MS flare and often times symptoms are bilateral meaning they start initially in a foot or an arm on one side and eventually progress like mine did. My only hope is to find a doctor who won't look at me like I'm crazy, say I'm "too young" or that it's "just anxiety". Sigh

      The cure for MS is diet.

    Recently I went to the ER because I was complaining of feeling numbness in my fingers and tingling pain shooting down my right arm when I twisted it the wrong way or when someone grabbed it. And the pain/tingles started going down my right leg. Also I noticed when my doctor was doing the little check up where they tap your knees to see your reflexes, both my legs shot out unusually far and fast. Alsoooo, I’ve noticed I’ve been having trouble urinating- or feeling the need to go but not being able to, and it’s really annoying. And then there’s my eyesight, I don’t really know if I can tell much of a difference w it because my vision has always been bad, but my far sighted vision has just been terrible. Like I have trouble reading from the textbook at school because the print is so small, and I never had trouble with that before. I noticed as well that I’ve been extremely fatigued but figured it was because I was in high school. But even when I go to sleep early, I wake up feeling deprived. And I don’t know if this would contribute to dizziness, but I felt wobbly when trying to do that heel to toe walking test... I don’t know. I’m going to a neurologist soon so please keep me in your prayers.

    Hey did the symptoms worsen as the days goes by because I’m a 18 year old living in Jamaica and since last week Tuesday, I’ve felt this tingling feeling in my upper arms and thighs. I’ve went to the doctor and explained what’s wrong and told him about my prehistoric anxiety attack since the covid thingy. He’s assuming it’s symptoms of anxiety but he told me to get a blood test done, (CBC and ESR) to be exact. I’m still awaiting the results but what I’ve realized is that after two or three days of the symptoms, it only affects me about 40 minutes or maybe less after waking and some days it don’t affect me at all, not even riding a bicycle does. Oh and also I have this weird feeling in my head that moves from on side to the other at times. I’m just curious because I’ve been reading a lot of posts on the internet and I saw the MS diagnosis and went to do a further research so I’m asking for your knowledge.

    Kind of similar issues to what I've had, although started with my right thumb. Although in my case I also have herniated discs in my neck, which could be causing the issues, including leg weaknesses. No signs of MS on my recent MRI scans, but I'm going to try and insist on a lumbar puncture to rule MS out once I eventually see the neurologist.

      The herniated discs in your neck can only cause leg weakness if there's compression on the spine. In my experience it's better to deal with the disc stuff first and then worry about a dx of MS. When a bone spur compressed my spine my neurologist had to fight with the surgeon to do my surgery b/c of the possibility it maybe MS. Years before my compression MRI showed a high cervical lesion, mild spine compression, (clear brain scans), disc issues at 5/6 but everything was blamed on "MS?" while my neck progressed to cervical stenosis with myelopathy. Anyways, hope you found some answers.

Told work, they got me a heat pack for my hands and half an hour later came good again. Haven’t had a bad episode like that again, but all the other symptoms like fatigue, brain fog and sexual dysfunction are alarming.

I had a scan to see if I had MS, and they said it had to be something else. 8 years later I had another scan, and there was no doubt I had MS. So I would go again. I wished I went back sooner, I would be probably in a better condition now.

      The coimbra protocol is the cure for multiple sclerosis and all autoimmune diseases. I have been fortunate enough to see thousands of successful cases of people who no longer even saw or walked back to having a totally normal life. This treatment was developed by the doctor PH.D. Cícero Galli Coimbra who is a neurologist and professor at the Federal University of São Paulo, Brazil.
      therapeutic dosages of vitamin D
      generally superior to what the pharmaceutical industries recommend
      this is a medical treatment that must always be carried out under the supervision of a qualified doctor
      Vitamin D is actually a D3 hormone
      Its main function in the human body is to regulate and enhance innate immunity
      So it is able to silence autoimmune diseases.
      This protocol also corrects levels of other vitamins and minerals such as magnesium
      to avoid kidney overload
      Drink at least 2.5 liters of water per day
      Restrictive calcium diet
      Do not consume foods such as: all dairy products (milk, yoghurts, cheeses), as well as chestnuts, dried fruits, canned sardines, orange juice, açaí, etc.
      Thousands of academic publications provide the efficacy of vitamin D in autoimmune diseases such as multiple sclerosis, Crohn's disease, Vitiligo, Psoriasis, Type 1 diabetes, Sjögren's syndrome, Hashimoto's thyroiditis, autism ...
      Vitamin D has about 80 functions in our body
      Vitamin D is the largest regulator of activity in the immune system
      When vitamin D is deficient, the patient is unable to regulate, which means stimulating or reducing the activity of thousands of biological functions within the cells of the immune system.
      You only need to go on a calcium-free diet if you are going to take more than 20,000 ui a day of vitamin d3, if you want to take that 20,000 ui dose every day you do not need medical monitoring or diet, this will help a lot to reverse symptoms. In more serious cases, I recommend monitoring with the doctors associated with Coimbra, they prescribe many times more than 100,000 units a day, but this is done with monitoring, exams and a calcium-free diet.

Had MRI done on the back it is showed mild hypertrophic changes to the vertebrae and discs then they diagnosed me with intervertebral disc degeneration and Facet Joint Syndrome. Over these years feels like I've been getting worse, not no simple arthritis as the Army and VA doctors keep saying. Well I couldn't stay in the service was causing so much pain, becoming extremely difficult to pick up and carry heavy objects, I don't have any tingling or numbness in the legs, just a stinging burning like pain and tightness, especially that I've been standing and walking around bending and twisting all day. The only tingling and numbness I experience where my arms, around my shoulder blades my right side of face and right side of tongue. Experience some balance and or coordination issues, walking down the hall one day my mother was asking what was wrong with me she thought I was drunk just because the way I was walking I barely could. My older brother when I work with him he make those comments don't throw yourself on the floor John, cuz it looks like I'm tripping or stumbling but there's nothing there for me do trip or stumble on. then about a month-and-a-half ago I experienced and unexplained blackout while I was driving resulting in a crash. All I remember with getting in my truck not cranking it not putting into drive I have no knowledge of driving, or should I say no awareness. then waking up in ambulance EMTs telling me that I was involved in an accident, then suffering a head injury result of the crash a concussion with loss of consciousness. Had CT scans done no red flags according to the doctors. now it's just a waiting game to see the neurologist
