Hello everyone,

Multiple Sclerosis brings a whole host of symptoms that many patients endure before being diagnosed. Some of the most common symptoms are double vision, bladder issues, pain and spasms...unfortunately, the list goes on.

What Multiple Sclerosis symptoms did you first experience? How did you manage the symptoms?

I was mis dx. In 2000. I had lots of vision problems. It went away and then it came back and then my pcp sent me for an MRI and it guess what I have MS. So that is how my MS started.

So long ago— I believe it was numbness in my face/or one side of my body!!! I fell down the stairs at work one day—- I had been experiencing the numb feeling in various parts of my body. My supervisor who knew someone with MS recommended I see a neurologist!!

I was living with MS for years before being officially diagnosed in 2021.  I got annual MRIs, and I did not take any meds due to side effects.  I had one flare up in 2021.  My legs decided to a break, and I was numb from the waist down. I decided to try MS-4 from UineHealth Centre.  The numbness and Muscle spasms went away after a couple of weeks, but it took almost 3 months to walk properly without a cane.  In June, it will be four years without incident, and I am extremely happy that I made the decision to not take any meds and went for the MS-4 formula even though my neurologist got upset and one told me to quit my job because I will be disabled.  Well, I am not disabled, I still refuse to take those meds, and I am doing just fine.  Believe in yourself and go with your instincts.  Doctors don't know it all. I’m surprised a lot of people with MS haven’t heard of the MS-4 protocol, I got the treatment from uinehealthcentre. com I am absolutely confident that this protocol offers a viable solution. I hope you find it helpful.
