  • in my opinon all the below etc. dosages are different in different medications what is made for most people is entirely too high a dose for me when it does not work for others and visa versa. it is all dependant upon who can do or take what. doctors i believe want a one size fits all, teh nature of ms as I have found it to be is definately not like that.

  • everyone is different, some meds work for some persons, others are not tolerant of some meds, it is all indifferent. no one ms patient is the same as the other for the simple reason that, one person is attacked nuerologically in one place where another is in another place. everyone is different, along with tolerance of medications. all different allergies etc. some persons can take penecillan others cannot. some can take this or that personally? most everything i cannot. without advers affects.

  • some people just have the most uncommon of what is it luck? in the world. if it isnt one thing its another? who knows. a battle for life is what I can say and is exactly what it is.

  • Other issues that take place, different things, conditions, surgeries, scarring etc. all different things from different things that happened, not relevant, common sense. however laymen not allowed to have a brain? not sure. affected not stupid.

  • I found it took a number of years with chronic extreme migraines befor the first lesion was even seen on a mri. relevant or not? i do not know but with the vision issues the opthalmic migraines the pressure in the eyes that was found etc. all of it, in my opinion has some relevance.

  • No understanding what so ever in regards to the various areas, either reductions of inflamations or inflamation attacks, etc. no understanding what so ever what a person with ms actually endures on a constant on going chronic basis. it leave s alot to be desired of actually what is in dire need of being understood. along with the ten other nuero ailments closely related to MS. and the difficult nature of diagnosing or what used to be. you can have swelling with migraines without lesions showing

  • It really would not hurt the further understanding of what cognitive means. It does not mean your a vegetable. it does not mean a full blown gone out of your mind person, cognitive has various levels of impairments. I have found there is extremely very little understanding regarding cognitive impairments.

  • a objective? proactive? self secured, medical professional to listen to someone who has researched, not to be a smart ass, but rather in the effort of ones own care, along with the what is suggested quality of care of medical professionals. It stands to reason that if a persons is strving to stay alive and become an asset, that what works is heard. In ms. I found, therapy, message, chiropractic, ice, heat, meds, diet, management of the many facets that R due human respect, R a prt of MS. care

  • ok in trying to keep up with the video and answer per the video, skipped some things, the bottom line with MS. if persons were fortunate enough to be diagnosed early on, many treatment plans are successful. however later diagnosis hasnot afforded all persons this luxury, therefore it is quality of life that is not only assistive however is also a managemnt or otherwise control model. socio economic, strain on systems, etc. regardless there are areas that can be assistive or addressed. it takes

  • a diffferent topic for a different issue of course. However, socio economics were related to the potentials for becoming disabled, vs. illness. Not at all consistant with reality.
