OzMS

I have had a return of the tingling sensations over the past 4 weeks, and three times in the last fortnight it felt as though electric shocks were hitting the sole and heel of my left foot. The only way to reduce the sensation was to hit my foot on the place where it was being zapped. I have also had really itchy skin, though that has now subsided. Is this an exacerbation?

Hi All,

Hi all,

Just wondering whether anyone has been diagnosed with Fibromyalgia.

I have just been advised that I have this on top of MS and I would like to find out what others are taking medication or supplement wise etc; and whether they have found any benefit from it.

Most of the things they wanted to give me I can't take as been there, done that with very bad reactions!!

George Jelinek recently gave a radio interview covering his life and MS issues. It is an interesting interview which gives you a positive insight into the man himself. I really enjoyed it.

Here is a link to the radio program:

Vitamin D has been found to be needed for T cells to work properly. Vitamin D is crucial to activating our immune defences and that without sufficient intake of the vitamin, the killer cells of the immune system – T cells – will not be able to react to and fight off serious infections in the body.

This is an exciting finding!

This is an excellent short video clip with three Aussie ladies speaking about living with MS. They all have great attitudes, get on with life, they are lucky to have supportive partners and employers, and that sure makes things easier. Lucky ladies!

Enjoy this clip, I certainly did!

Shows that supplementation does work. I'm going to stay on 5000 iu maintenance from now on.
All bloods were great, cholesterol down, blood fat down - no issues at all, perfectly healthy, until I stand up and start to wobble
