Natural Cures for Problems with Multiple Sclerosis

Author Information

by mike last modified 2010-02-17 10:39

Multiple Sclerosis is caused by the loss of the myelin sheaths around the nerve fibres. This loss causes them to transmit the nerve messages incorrectly.  This myelin sheath loss is patchy, variable and often progressive, leading to many different patterns of symptoms.

Common initial symptoms are:-

  • Visual problems with reduction or loss of colour vision
  • Reduction of night vision in one eye
  • Weakness of leg or arm especially after exercise or being tired and dizziness
  • Concentration problems
  • Continence problems 
  • Mobility Problems

Multiple Sclerosis may have a rapidly progressive course or the sufferer may only have one attack of visual difficulty with most having a course somewhere between.


Multiple Sclerosis Treatments

Modern Western Medicine

Drug treatment is by high dose steroids during attacks and it is said that Amantadine may help the fatigue. Linoleic Acid (found in certain oils) may be helpful
