In response to:
I have primary progressive MS and it took a while to figure it out since I have a long history of back injuries and degenerative disc disease. I take vistaril to manage nerve twitching, percucet to mange pain and they recently gave me some lyrica to relive some nerve pain. Different things work for different people so trial and error becomes part of the experience. The vistaril works for me and percucet works, I am not sure if the Lyrica is doing much. I was a very active person and along the way to figuring this out I tried every form of excersize, physical therapy, alternative therapy, acupuncture, chiro, pilates, yoga, shiatsu, rolfing, tia chi, chronic pain coach, hypnosis, massage therapy and finally was diagnosed with MS after becoming inactive and housebound for months now. I worked on my nutrition , with nutritionist and one that has worked with MS people, recommended 2400 units of vit E, 5 grams of Lechithin, and 2 tablespoons of cod liver oil daily, taken together before bed and to be sure not eat a few hours before. This is in addition to other nutrition recommendations including, no dairy, no gluten or grains, no caffein, no sugar or forms of artificial sweetener, no fruits, the recommendations she has are protein from meat or eggs - 3 palm sized portions and 3, 1/2 palm sized portions in between meals, beans or legumes 1/2 cup 3 times a day for fiber and acts as a binding element for items that collect in the liver bile, such as toxins built up from medications and undesired items. all the vegetable you desire, corn is not considered a vegetable. No rice, potatoes or breads. Nuts and seeds up to desired levels, Water is the beverage. This what she recommends, it is fairly easy as you get adjusted. You can do whatever you want, her contact info. is www.karenhurd.com if you want to watch some free information she has on her site. She has nothing to sell other than consultation, she does over the phone too. She has these recommendations for most. I have challenges eating that much right now, however, when I did eat on schedule as much as she recommended, I felt really good and actually lost weight. My doctor said good nutrition is always a staple to good health, however, he reminded me that MS has no cure. I have seached extensively and learned so much, I have read many books on MS, studied the ABC treatment drugs so you can always email me too, djprieve@yahoo.com One item that developed for me is a heat or temperature intolerance and a dr I recently saw who has ms himself said that is a hallmark syptom of ms.   Wishing you the best!
