Symptoms

I get tired more frequently and try to get more sleep to combat the fatigue. Any advice?

Jim - Totally hear you — fatigue is one of the most frustrating symptoms of MS. Getting more sleep definitely helps, but I’ve found that managing my energy throughout the day is just as important. A few things that have worked for me:

  • Pacing: I break tasks into smaller chunks and give myself permission to rest without guilt.

  • Staying cool: Heat really drains me, so I try to keep my environment cool and avoid overheating.

  • Movement: Light activity like stretching or short walks can actually boost energy when I’m feeling sluggish.


Also dont forget to Hydrate!

Brain Fog

Aside from Numbness / tingling, my biggest symptom is brain fog....ughh so frustrating.

I get that too. I completely forget words. I can tell you the entire definition of the word but never the actually the world. Frustration defined

Daily Functioning

Has anyone implemented any assistive devices or therapies to improve daily functioning?

My feet hurt every day

Hello everyone. I am 52 and was just diagnosed last year. I’ve had it since I was 18 which was my first episode but it went undiagnosed. Anyway, my feet hurt mostly every single day. And at about the same time, in the evening. You’d think I worked a double shift and I didn’t. They feel swollen, my ankles get stiff and I end up having to lay down super early. What the hell does this mean? Does anyone else get this on their feet?

Diagnosed at 60 though they figured had it for 17-18 years, ankles especially my left plus foot hurt every evening, because if the walking swinging out at tines and foot almost trips up quite a bit does not keep up so applies lot of pressure so causes pain. I apply lots of Tiger balm or Icy Hot and will on and off take extra strength Tylenol or Advil
