4 weeks ago I met a doctor who explained
that multiple sclerosis is an autoimmune
disease. This means that the body is
essentially attacking itself. One’s own
immune system attacks the myelin sheath
around the nerve and causes an
inflammatory response. It is actually the
oxidative stress caused by this reaction
that is damaging the myelin sheath. The
clinical course of ms is definitely
varied. Some of his patients progress
rapidly and are wheelchair bound or bed
bound within a few short years. Other
patients actually have a fairly normal
life and will go years before they have
any kind of a set back.
He made recommendations that my be
beneficial to some of you but there's too
much information to post here.
If anyone wants to receive this
information, e-mail me and i'll send it to
you.
