FROM THE ISSUE | SPRING 2011 By MOLLY M. GINTY Kathleen Prieskorn gasped in shock as her medical nightmare began. Still reeling from the heartbreak of an earlier miscarriage, Prieskorn was three months pregnant and working as a waitress when she felt a twinge, felt a trickle down her leg and realized she was miscarrying again. She rushed to her doctor's office, "where I learned my amniotic sac had torn," says Prieskorn, who lives with her husband in Manchester, N.H. "But the nearest hospital had recently merged with a Catholic hospitaland because my doctor could still detect a fetal heartbeat, he wasn't allowed to give me a uterine evacuation that would help me complete my miscarriage." To get treatment, Prieskorn, who has no car, had to instead travel 80 miles to the nearest hospital that would perform the procedureexpensive to do in an ambulance, because she had no health insurance. Her doctor handed her $400 of his own cash and she bundled into the back of a cab. "During that trip, which seemed endless, I was not only devastated, but terrified," Prieskorn remembers. "I knew that ifthere were complications I could lose my uterusand maybe even my life." Ordeals like … Continue reading →

There is no cure for multiple sclerosis. Treatment typically focuses on speeding recovery from attacks, slowing the progression of the disease and managing MS symptoms. Some people have such mild symptoms that no treatment is necessary. No therapies have shown benefit for slowing the progression of primary-progressive MS. For relapsing-remitting MS, several disease-modifying therapies are available. Much of the immune response associated with MS occurs in the early stages of the disease. Aggressive treatment with these medications as early as possible can lower the relapse rate and slow the formation of new lesions. Many of the disease-modifying therapies used to treat MS carry significant health risks. Selecting the right therapy for you will depend on careful consideration of many factors, including duration and severity of disease, effectiveness of previous MS treatments, other health issues, cost, and child-bearing status. Treatment options for relapsing-remitting MS include: Beta interferons. These medications are among the most commonly prescribed medications to treat MS. They are injected under the skin or into muscle and can reduce the frequency and severity of relapses. Side effects of beta interferons may include flu-like symptoms and injection-site reactions. You'll need blood tests to monitor your liver enzymes because liver damage … Continue reading →

Introduction Multiple sclerosis (MS) affectsnerves in the brain and spinal cord, causing a wide range of symptoms including problems with muscle movement, balance and vision. Each nerve fibre in the brain and spinal cord is surrounded by a layer of protein called myelin, which protects the nerve and helps electrical signals from the braintravel to the rest of the body. In MS, the myelin becomes damaged. This disrupts the transfer of these nerve signals, causing a wide range of potential symptoms, such as: Read more about the symptoms of multiple sclerosis. Around eight out of 10 people with MS are diagnosed with the relapsing remitting type of MS. Someone with relapsing remitting MS will have flare-ups of symptoms, known as relapses. These can last from a few days to a few months. These will be followed by periods where symptoms are mild or disappear altogether. This is known as remission and can last for days, weeks or sometimes months. Usually after around 15 years, around half of people with relapsing remitting MS will go on to develop secondary progressive MS. In secondary progressive MS, symptoms gradually worsen over time. Some people may still have relapses, but without full recovery from … Continue reading →

Is it MS?. Thomas Northcut / Getty Images Updated August 04, 2014. Written or reviewed by a board-certified physician. See About.com's Medical Review Board. Multiple sclerosis symptoms are confusing and mysterious. If you are reading this, you either are having symptoms that you suspect might be multiple sclerosis (MS), or you know that you have it and are wondering if what you are experiencing is yet another way that your disease is surprising you. MS is a complicated disease. Many of the symptoms, such as fatigue, dizziness, tremor, pain or cognitive problems, are difficult to link to MS, as they are hard to quantify and common to many other diseases. I had all of the symptoms listed above (as well as many more) and saw at least seven or eight doctors for them over a span of 15 years before receiving my diagnosis of MS. The list below outlines some of the major MS symptoms, but there are more than 50 symptoms that fit the bill. Fortunately, there are medications to modify the MS disease course and management strategies for the symptoms of MS. Remember, in many patients, the symptoms will remit (resolve or partially resolve) after some period of … Continue reading →

My wife made a comment last week that Ive thought about a lot since she said it. It was said in passing in the middle of a conversation that I cannot remember (apparently, my wifes not the only person in our family with poor memory). In this case, though, I think I fail to remember the rest of the conversation because her comment stunned me. I dont think Ill live a long life. I knew if I talked to her about it then, I would become too assertive about how wrong I thought the statement was and that she had no right to think that way. (Actually, she has the right to think any way she wishes and usually does even if I dont like it!) I knew, though, I wouldnt be able to listen to what she was really saying. So, a week later, yesterday morning, I asked her about her comment. I imagine you said it because you have MS, but having MS doesnt mean youll have a shorter life. Are you thinking youll have a shorter life because of something youve read? Or is it just a hunch? Shes a realist and a pragmatist. I need the … Continue reading →

There are quite a lot natural treatments for multiple sclerosis, some working better than others. While others do good, some are just placebo. Apple cider vinegar, is it a viable multiple sclerosis natural treatment? Lets take a look at whats behind the apple cider vinegar (ACV for short). ACV is produced out of apple juice. Apple juice is fermented first to alcohol, then to acetic acid (aka vinegar). Since, the time Babylonians converted wine into vinegar; vinegar became revered for its healing qualities. Today, this is still true. There are many who claim that ACV can lower blood pressure, cure arthritis, lower cholesterol, prevent cancer and help one digest better and manage his or her weight. While the first medicinal use of ACV was documented by Hippocrates, until 1958 there wasnt much attention paid to it. All changed with Dr Jarvis, who claimed that ACV can cure diabetes, chronic fatigue, migraine headaches, arthritis, and other illnesses and diseases. According to Dr Jarvis supporters, apple cider vinegar contains calcium, magnesium, potassium, minerals, chlorine, copper, iron, sulphur and lots of other healthy ingredients, including vitamin E, vitamin C, vitamin A, vitamin B1, vitamin B2, and beta-carotene. However, thats not true. A simple … Continue reading →
