Question by -naughtyprincess-: I have multiple sclerosis, but I have never had a lesion appear on an MRI.?
I carry the diagnosis, and I take the medication Copaxone, but every time I have an MRI (yearly) they say that they dont see lesions…so do I actually have MS or not? Does anyone else hear this from their neurologist. I am afraid that they just think I am crazy and making stuff up!

My mom has a condition known as Stiff Person’s Syndrome (yes, real name!) Her condition mimics the symptoms of MS, Lupus and Fibromyalgia. In other words, she has symptoms from each of those conditions. They’ve done a couple of MRI’s on her and never once saw a legion…of any kind, anywhere! But somehow she was officially diagnosed with SPS which is registered with NORD, the National Organization of Rare Disorders. Even still if she has to go to a new neurologist, sometimes she has to go all the way back to basics in explaining everything to that new doc.
You aren’t crazy! Don’t even think that! You don’t WANT to have MS, so why “make it up”? I would suggest that you either seek another neurologist and get a 2nd, 3rd or even 4th opinion and maybe do some research with the NORD organization. I think they have a website. Keep your head up! You aren’t crazy!

Most people do not realize how wide-spread the affliction of multiple sclerosis is in today’s world. It affects tens of thousands of people, but it is one of those diseases where a very mild form of it could almost go unnoticed by the general public, and allow the patient to live a pretty normal day to day life. But for others, the effects of multiple sclerosis can be harsh.
Multiple sclerosis is generally considered to be a disease of the nervous system. With most patients, MS gets worse over time, although that time can be anywhere from a few weeks to several years, since the rate of degradation differs from person to person. The most obvious effect is the loss of motor controls within the central nervous system, starting with a loss of eeling and a loss of control over normal movements and speaking.
From a medical standpoint, MS affects the body’s central nervous system and breaks down the signals that go to the brain. This involves the threat to the different nerves and nerves sensors or fibers, also involving a threat to the brain, spinal cord, as well as in many patients, the optical nerve. What happens is that multiple sclerosis damages the enzymes and proteins that provide a defense or safeguard to those nerve fibers. This protective substance is known as myelin, where the primary purpose of myelin is to aid in the communications between the various nerve cells. Once the myelin safeguard is damaged or begins to break down, this causes a breakdown in the communications between the various nerve centers and their coordination.
Multiple Sclerosis, as various studies have indicated, seems to primarily be hereditary. Medical research has shown that the children of parents where either one of the parents has been diagnosed with MS are very likely to be afflicted with it. Certain hormones, particularly hormones associated with sex like progesterone and estrogen have proven to weaken the immune system and have the potential to cause MS.
The symptoms of multiple sclerosis are not readily evident unless you are watching for them. Since MS affects the central nervous system, the first indications of MS would be a lack of balance or tremors. Such symptoms should not be ignored if they persist beyond a few hours, and should be checked as soon as possible with your doctor.
Although it may sound trite, the best preventive measure you can take against multiple sclerosis is ensuring that you have a very rich and balanced diet. Your diet plays a significant role in almost anything you do, and the prevention of MS is certainly among those things. A balanced diet of the right foods will strengthen the immune system and help it fight against the breakdown of the myelin proteins.
Once you have been diagnosed with MS, there are many things that can be prescribed for you. Your doctor will undoubtedly recommend a balanced diet to keep your immune system and the nervous system safeguards as healthy as possible. The most important piece, however, is to get an accurate diagnosis as quickly as possible so that measures can be taken to fight it quickly.

Question by White Polar Bear: What alternative medical treatment for Multiple Sclerosis (MS)?
By the way, the question is for a friend of a friend.
My friend is thinking about acupuncture but they probably need some convinces before they try (they are the academic type). I try to gather information for them. Any links to good articles on diet change, acupuncture and herbal treatments are most appreciated.

Hi White Polar Bear! I take a drug called LDN which is Low Dose Naltrexone. Naltrexone was developed to help people with a narcotic addiction. Taken in low quantities it can really make a difference for people with any immune disorder. It gave me my life back. You can find plenty of information on this drug simply by going to LDN.COM.
