I was informed by my friend that my pharmacy now makes a combination pill. It’s the same three pills a day, but it now has in addition to the hundred milligrams of biotin, 400 mg of the Alpha lipoic acid. You can click on the pill bottle on my webpage or you or you can click on the link I provided below. https://highdosebiotin.net/ Alpha lipoic acid has been studied to help in secondary progressive MS. https://www.mssociety.org.uk/ms-research/treatments-in-the-pipeline/lipoic-acid Studies in animal models…

At a meeting last week, the EMA’s Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use (CHMP) concluded that the clinical data from two trials that enrolled 253 patients was not sufficient (link is external) to…

I just finished my six month taking high dose biotin. I’m taking 300mg per day as was done in the MS clinical trial. You have to get this higher dosage from a specialty pharmacy. I get mine from Ace Pharmacy online. I was hoping to have a link on my side bar from Ace pharmacy, but I we haven’t linked up yet. This is the website. https://highdosebiotin.net/about-us/ You can call and speak to them, the people there are extremely knowledgable and…

With any chronic Illness, I think our medicine cabinet becomes a small pharmacy. I thought I’d give a list of what I am taking for my multiple sclerosis, the dosage and the reason. I’ve included links to my other posts if I have information that I thought was useful on a particular drug or vitamin. This post is an added plus for me. I can print and give to doctors instead of rewriting each drug I take on their medical…

Look at my last few weeks…I was gearing up for the holidays, got this puppy, go away for Christmas, my beloved dog Boomer died, I spiral into a complete depression, cried everyday for a week plus but my multiple sclerosis symptoms are relatively the same. Are they better? No, but they aren’t worse. Multiple Sclerosis isn’t directly linked to stress, but it never failed for me when I’d have high periods of stress, about one month later, BANG MS ISSUES….

At my neurologist appointment she wanted me to start taking Alpha Lipoic acid 1200mg a day.  She explained that like the biotin study I talked about https://multipleexperiences.org/2016/10/24/high-dose-biotin-with-progressive-ms-a-patients-review/ It was shown to help patients with secondary progressive multiple sclerosis. The vitamin is inexpensive. I got a bottle of 600mg on Amazon for $14.99. I take 2 a day. I just started yesterday. Like anything I will keep you updated to anything I’ve noticed both good and bad with my own MS symptoms. I…
