I'm wrestling with the thought of Disease Modifying Drugs, from what I read, The UK and other parts of the world quit paying for these, as they had side effects and have poor results. Today I saw a neurologist that had ordered a spinal fluid test and MRI of the brain (no contrast). Protein level was twice as high as the upper exceptionable range, plus MRI show some scaring (not much). Though blood work was unremarkable.
Now they are talking about sending me to another Neurologist for there diagnoses and prescribing of Disease Modify Drugs. I really do not want to go through any more testing. and would prefer to allow the OMS diet sometime to work.
I have minor symptoms thus far, and was first DX over 30 years ago. Seems like testing puts stress on the body, and make things worst. I asked about blood cleaning or plasma protocol if I had other unrelated surgeries. The answer is just take a pill, which I really doubt the odds of helping.
How has everyone else sorted out these decisions, I know Dr. Roy Swank did not agree with the drug therapies, but did prescribe plasma to help the body cope with stress.
