MS center University of North Carolina Chapel Hill
Hi, I'm considering moving to Chapel Hill North Carolina for work. Does anyone have experience as MS patients receiving care at the MS clinic at UNC hospitals in Chapel Hill?

I have one larger periventricular lesion and several smaller lesions that they discovered in November of last year. I have the symptoms of numbness and tingling, fatigue, heat sensitivity, muscle pain and cramping, and memory problems/cognitive issues. How long will...

Hello All, my name is Wolf. I'm a 48 year old male and I was diagnosed in 2015 as having relapsing remitting MS. When I was diagnosed in 2015 my neurologist stated that I have had MS for many years but could not be anymore specific than that.

My husband has been going there for a couple of years. Started at Duke (nice people, but the doctors seem to have so many specialties but not focused soley on MS) but moved to UNC because it is closer. Not totally happy with the Doctors--nice but busy and overwhelmed. There was a wonderful nurse practitioner there but she left recently so now we are going to try Raleigh neurology, which seems to be popular among many MS patient in the area. He as his first appt later this week. I'll try to remember to post afterward and let you know how it went.
