- I recently requested medical records from my doctors. I had seizure like episodes starting in '07 that were diagnosed by my first neurologist as pseudoseizures. The records show that he noted abnormalities on my basic neurological exam but when a...
- I recently requested a copy of my records from my previous doctors for SSI. All of them wanted me to sign a release except my first (and worst) neuro, his office mailed them to me without a release. This in itself bothers me. After I looked...
- This is an article from the Multiple Sclerosis Foundation about diseases that can mimic MS. Since I'm not diagnosed yet I found the article very interesting, I hope it might be useful for someone. ...
- I've heard that LDN can be purchased from River Pharmacy in Canada without a prescription. I was wondering if anyone knows if this is true. I'm also wondering if it's legal to possess it here without a prescription for it. I have custody of my...
- The University of Maryland has a "Alternative Medicine Index" that lists many herbs and supplements. Once you choose one it provides some good details about each one and it's uses. If anyone is interested in taking any new supplements or herbs, or...
- I started my new med adjustment about 2 weeks ago because I'm in the middle of a mixed episode. The pdoc upped my Depakote from 1000 mg to 1250 mg and added on 10 mg of Abilify. I'm most definitely manic right now and have been for about a week. ...
- Last night I picked up a hot pot off of the stove. It was hot enough to make me let go with my right hand but not my left. I put my left hand on the other handle and it was just as hot as the other one was. I could feel the heat with my right...
- I remember reading that MS has a "genetic component". I also remember my mom telling me about her having a period of time before I was born when she was really sick. She said that she has the worst fatigue ever, they ran all kinds of tests, and...
- I'm BP1 and I'm fairly sure my youngest son is too, he's almost 6. A few weeks ago my son became very upset when he felt like his older brother and sister weren't listening to him. My daughter told me that he ran into the bathroom and stuck his...
- They're still in experimental stages of figuring all of this out with mice but it was exciting to hear about anyway. I thought I'd post it here for anyone else who likes to read these articles. :-)"Nerve Cell Damage In MS May Be...
- I had a cold that turned into a sinus infection. My boyfriend was only sick for two days, I was sick for just short of two weeks. About a week into being sick I woke up and felt absolutely horrible. I'm in a brain fog, I'm tripping over things,...

- I just got back from my pdoc appointment and he is increasing my Depakote by 250 mg and adding on 5 mg of Abilify twice a day. I've never been on Abilify before and was hoping I could get some opinions about it. Thanks!
- There is a post in the crisis center by WuzNutz that really concerns me. I think he could really use some support and maybe some coping suggestions right now.
- I've been on Depakote for about a year now. It's the first mood stabilizer they tried me on and it worked really well when I first started taking it. About six months ago I had to increase my dose. Now that I've been on it for a year I feel like...
