Thank you❤️ I have a friend who has Multiple Sclerosis. She has totally removed dairy from her diet, and it has helped lessen her symptoms. If she accidentally ingests a bit with cooking for the family, her next day is awful. I wonder if anybody else’s symptoms are worse with dairy?
Thanks Dr. For the great information. In the month of January this year my beloved wife went to be with the Lord suffering from Sytamatic Sclerosis for nineteen years. This desease is slow killer. The sad thing is none of the Dr. gave any medicine to her for this problem.
Am also taking the yog class of many patients of multiple decease, and believe me after watching all your videos I can help them more better ways..thank you soo much for sharing videos.
Thanks for explaining the types of pain mam.I am diagnosed with RA recently. Now I experience pain in the left side of face beneath ear.and also pain in spinal cord. I am doing some physiotherapy & hot water fomenting. Please advise what should I do further to reduce pain.
Pot is something I react poorly to I become as angry and aggressive as I do when I take steroids. And instead of helping my eye sight it both have caused blood vessels to burst. So I believe you have to taking in account of other issues the person has going on. The other medications you advised do make be feel better in large amounts, but have caused my stomach and colon to react. They cause Diarrhea to and or a continuous urge to go. My incontinence is much worse. I have worried about addiction to 5 gm opid that I'm taking and I often only take one a morning and as needed. When my Bulging disc, sciatica, spainal arthritis, and a host of other issues like my sprained foot hurts. The pain is lowered to a bearable level , so you now are saying it is adding to my pain. I started out asking for 4 hours a day , but my pain as increased over the years antidepressants I've tried made me suicidal and so I'm left with very little missing things I want to do. I've had insurance cut my medications for weeks and only my bowel system is effected not with pain thank goodness but with other issues mostly because it is dealing with pain it systems.
Hello Dr. Furlan. I'm new to your channel and find all the info very helpful. I have RRMS and recently suffered an MS flare from a C2 lesion. My doc said its a flare of an old lesion that started about 10 years ago. He calls it an occipital headache. Although I've always had pain in that area, it's been very tolerable and I had acclimated myself to the level of pain I've experienced over the years. However, with this recent flare, it has gotten very bad resulting in pain at the base of my skull every day for several months. No matter what I take, it only lessens the pain a little, but it always exacerbates by morning. I started taking a combination supplement of alpha lipoic acid with acetyl l carnitin. This has helped to make the pain a little more tolerable through the day, but I still wake up with pain daily. My doctor suggested I try Magnesium, since I prefer not to take prescription drugs. Dr. Furlan, I know you did a very informative video on the wonders of magnesium. What do you think about the combination of the alpha lipoic acid and acetyl l carnitin, along with Magnesium to manage occipital nerve pain? Also, which magnesium do you think would be best… oxide or glycinate?
Good evidence based detailed information about MS with types of pain and its management …i recollect my old patients young female 30 years suffered with MS with neuropathic pain optic neuritis with partial blindness severe spasticity myofascial pain and immobility .i used to go daily to rehab her to make her stand and walk with support ..at that time no medicines available for MS her brother is a dr in uk he send some medicines and we have tried our best one day she left …so very rare case but crippling one so i think this video useful to check initially and prevent without worsening… good stuff on 3 types of pain & management …nowadays i have often seeing nociplatic more ..this may leads to chronic disability …need good biopsychoscial model management ..with team of hcps …good one dr .andrea .

Hello. I've been diagnosed with MS in my early 20's. Turned out it was caused by untreated neuroborreliosis (Lyme disease) from childhood. It got resolved, including lesions, with prolonged antibiotic and herbal therapy. Significant consequences remain though. Wanted to put it out there, since it's a somewhat controversial topic in the mainstream.
Thank you❤️

Somewhat off topic, but I just have to ask. Was Mira Furlan related to you, the famous actress who played Delen in Babylon 5?
