Wow that would be awesome. Interesting article

The role of vitamin D is popping up more and more. I have been on a massive dose (25,000 iu /month)and have noticed an enormous benefit to my well being.

For those interested, this is not Vit D from the chemist, but prescribed by doctor.

Interesting to note that Dr. Terry Wahls has been improving her MS by studying how to support the brain functions and mitochondria, etc. I'd say there is something to all of this. Of course, I'd rather pursue the natural way if at all possible.

Thanks for sharing some hope!

It was discovered that I have a severe vitamin D deficiency. At present I am taking 500,000 IU of ergocalciferol twice a week. My level is now low normal after 3 years of trying to get the level up to a decent one. Being it is still low, I was recently upped to the 500,000 IU a week again.
What sucks about this is the constant blood draws. I have very bad veins and there is great difficulty around these blood draws.
Has this helped?
I honestly cannot say that taking all of this vitamin D for the past 3 years has done a thing really -- pain is still bad and overall disease has certainly not improved.
So, ? is my reply to this.
We need MORE research not padded by only the greedy pharmaceutical companies. We are their cash cows and they know it!

I have said this in multiple posts. If you do not have the right fats or liver function you can not absorb or store vitamin D. You might want to look at your fats if you can't keep your vitamin D levels up as it is a fat soluble vitamin.

Best wishes to you.

PS I am so glad in the last year or two there seems to be a divergence from all MS research being done on the immune system to looking at other areas. The gut can trigger the immune system so GI and bacteria are a great place to look. Fat (in some with MS) and amino acid levels are abnormal in those with MS. I think looking at Brain neurochemistry HAS to be looked at to find out why glutamate is so high (which will cause mito malfunction). I appreciate all these researchers looking outside the box to find answers. If anyone of them finds data to regress this disease we are all winners.

hmmmm...I like Canada! They have healthcare and my boyfriend is Canadian..well can get dual citizenship but hes really s Floridian and prob couldn't adapt LOL Im from Flint, MI so id be just fine. The heats gonna suck this year
