DMT

I just moved to NC and am seeing a Neurologist at ECU. She is thinking about changing my DMT. I have been on Ocrevus for 3 years but have been in a flair since getting COVID. She is also willing to help me prove that my MS was caused by Chemical Exposure at Ft McClellan. What chemicals could cause a change in my dna to get MS? My daughter who was 20 at the time was diagnosed 3 months after me and my other children have various health issues. Is this possible?

  1. Hi . We are not scientists or medical experts, but I wouldn't be surprised to hear that the chemical exposure created conditions in your body that made you and your daughter more susceptible to MS. It will be interesting to see what you and your doctor find out. I hope you will consider keeping us posted here. Many people with autoimmune diseases seem to experience flare after the stress of fighting Covid. I hope your symptoms improve soon and that your new doctor is able to help. Wishing you the best. - Lori (Team Member)
