    I don't have MS, but have a family member who does. A while back I watched a video by Dr Terry Wahls, on Youtube. She had progressive MS and treated herself thorugh diet, the link is below if you want to check it out. You could Google her name for more info on her website as well.

    I am so very sorry to hear about your diagnosis and wish you the best with your health and treatment.
