  • Try eating more often but smaller amounts during the day... 6-8am - eat breakfast 10am - eat a snack 12-1pm - eat lunch 3pm - eat a snack 5-6pm - eat dinner 8pm - eat a snack This type of eating will level out your blood sugar so your not spiking/diving, and your body won't "crave" so much (At least this is what a doctor…

  • I found this exercise site for anyone interested: http://www.mstrust.org.uk/information/exercises/. It's great if you are just starting out or are having trouble with "normal" exercise. There are a series of videos focusing on different things such as warm ups, chair exercises, etc.

  • Doc just upped me to 1,000 units twice a day because my bloodwork came back pretty low. I have to go back in a few months to have it checked again. I live in NH and have trouble getting around so I don't get much sun. I try to sit in sunny windows during the day but don't know if that does anything to help.

  • Not sure if anyone is following this topic still but I am having a similar "process". In Dec '10 I had a little tingling in my right foot, drove to the doctor in the morning to get checked out, by that evening I was paralized on my right side from just below my ribs down and couldn't stand/walk. I had an abnormal SSEP,…
