Breathing New Life Back Into an old thread
Hey Guys n Grrls, Haven't posted in a while because I'm doing really well and have gone back to work where they monitor internet use carefully... and hence...

Kristy, It can become easy (at least for me) to get stuck in Analysis Paralysis. If this then this, maybe, but not always, but if I .... you know what I mean. Sounds like you're actively there. Lots of us have switched several times and found something that we think works best for us. I'm not sure y...

Re: Night Sweats
Seelie, I recently have been getting night-sweats. The occaisional symptom started soon after I started Low Dose Naltrexone. I thought that my night-sweats were a side-effect of LDN, but after reviewing this thread, I think that Deb's (OddDuck) hypothesis makes more sense. In 2000 I participated in...

and I highly recommend letting it warm up to room temperature or even bod temperature before injecting. I put the syringe under my armpit for a few minutes before--much less pain. good luck with it! carolsue Yeah... What she said :) Except I've tricked my wife into warming it up for me in her hands...

Re: Night sweats
Seelie, do you take any other meds? If so what? I too was getting night sweats. I would sometimes wake being cold, I think because my pillow was so damp(yuck)! I have a couple of theories but depends on other meds. I take Betaseron but the sweats were occuring before I started it. Guess I can't bla...

The Sweats ::ick:::
I'm having night sweats and have had for some time. When you go look around at those 'diagnose thyself' websites... one usually finds - HIV (nope)... Menopause (very unlikely since I'm a guy)... blood sugar...and a few other unlikely maladies depending on the website... Looking around in the MS area...

My first symptoms were also of the vertigo variety - but I only noticed it at high speeds while driving. (un)fortunately soon thereafter, I started having real vision problems (nystagmus and diploplia) which was something tangible they could see and helped lead to a quicker diagnosis. Was really fru...

What's an Enhancing Lesion (in English Please)
Wow... This has been harder to figure out that I thought it was. I thought Google + the words Enhancing Lesion would lead me to the right answer... but I just got more confuzzled. There's this stuff about enhancing that appears to be some sort of MRI contrast fluid also.... and a lot of it was in Me...
