Besides prescription drugs, what has worked for you? As in lifestyle changes, diet, exercise, herbs, vitamins, etc. Please be specific, and say which symptoms have been helped.

Thanks!

I follow the Dr Swank diet and that helps a lot in MANY ways. I also take magnesium to help with muscle spasms. Most importantly look up something called Low Dose Naltrexone on the internet. it was a BIG help to me and I still take it. Start it ASAP.

Well, for me…I start having symptoms if I am not healthy. so to make them go away, I start to sleep earlier…sleep a lot longer…naps help. Eat WAYYY healthier…sushi is a big one for me I love it.

And significantly reduce your stress! Stress throws all of these things off…automatically if you're stressed, you don't sleep good, you don't eat right…

If I am too stressed…I take sleep medication, because rest is very important when it comes to M.S. And of course, exercise, preferably way from heat. such as swimming, or exercising indoors.

Oh yes, and fish oil supplements help a lot too, it reduces nerve swelling a little.

my husband has mild MS, his symptoms include tingling sensations in his hands and arms and a feeling of lightness in his body.

He started taking Ginko Bilboa and Ginseng as well as keeping active by going to the gym regularly, this has dramatically improved his symptoms and he leads a totally normal life

I know about relapse and remitting. but I mean when your getting symptoms is it there all the time or can it come and go?

"Symptoms of MS are unpredictable and vary from person to person and from time to time in the same person. for example, one person may experience abnormal fatigue, while another might have severe vision problems. a person with MS could have loss of balance and muscle coordination making walking difficult; another person with MS could have slurred speech, tremors, stiffness, and bladder problems. while some symptoms will come and go over the course of the disease, others may be more lasting."

What Silver Tongue said…lol

Reactions to MS are variable as the persons who are affected by it. However, from the little I know about MS, and from the few people that I know that have it, yes, the symptoms come and go. The good news is that advancements are being made everyday, and soon they will figure out how to stop it. best wishes.

It comes and goes, but each time it leaves more scaring on the nervous systems

yes it comes and goes

The Swank Diet is supposed to be good for MS patients (See Dr Whitaker's Guide to Natural Healing).

We have heard testamonies that some people have gotten good results from drinking monavie juice.

My uncle has MS but i don't know much about it…. sorry
I think it comes and goes, but i'm not sure…

Yes, they can go into remission but generally increase in severity and frequency the further the disease progresses.

I have MS and my symptoms come and go. Sometimes worse than others. if u suspect that u have MS u should see ur doc soon.

Yes, usually the symptoms come and go, however, in case of primary progressive MS, symptoms come and never go and even worse they deteriorate all the time.

There is little absolite with MS
You can have symptoms that come or increase during the day

They can come and go to some extent.- Reailze that the physical damage cannot be confirmed to cause a particular symptom

Its a strange disease.
