what would be safe to take for edema of legs and hands Very Happyx. M.S.
My husband has all the symptoms of M.S. But because of Medicaid getting into a specialist has been a battle. His heart stops he has loss of balance and feel like his veins are sucking in. He is miserable and I don't know what to do? The Hospital tells him to just come back. He feels this way all the time over 2 years.

Since he has felt this way X2 years what has the doctors said? Wow, havimg Medicaid and not being able to get into see a Specialist..That sure has changed..When I worked in the Ophthalmologist office a couple years back Medicaid patients were seen by the droves because it was quick money coming in..Medicaid paid fast..

Problem is you can have alot of the symptoms and it not be MS..So,without a doctors diagnosis it's best to call your PCP..

Massage can help in removing fluids..Look online for massage of swelling to get idea of best way to go about this..Must take in water afterwards..Or, see a massage therapist..

Do you all have a MS facility in your area? What if you went online and researched local MS foundations and told them exactly what oyu outon here..Maybe they can help direct you quicker..
