Does the pain ever stop?

  1. Hi Tawnya. I wish you were not in constant pain. Are you experiencing a relapse or is this level of pain normal for you? Have you talked to your doctor about this?
    Here is an article from one of our advocates who uses a TENS unit to alleviate her pain: https://multiplesclerosis.net/living-with-ms/spasticity-literal-pain/. Here is another article about complementary and alternative treatments for MS: https://multiplesclerosis.net/news/aan-2014-complementary-alternative-medicine-cam-ms/.
    I hope you find something in these articles that brings you relief or at least takes the edge off. Hugs! - Lori (Team Member)

    1. Sometimes the pain stops with the right combo of meds for pain and spasms and prednisone and rest and nutrition. For me every day requires thought and planning to achieve less or no pain. Inexplicably though, on some rare days it simply stops on its own.

      1. I am glad you have found something that helps, . Best of all wishes! - Lori (Team Member)
