I choose self care at this stage of my remission. There's no cure.

I bring up self care because no matter if one treats their MI with traditional medicine or goes to an alternative route, sleep hygiene, nutrition and some form of exercise would be suggested as paths to recovery. There's no cure.
But with MS the mechanism is known right (damage to the myelin sheaths)? My point was that comparing physical disease to MI seems to throw a wrench in the the discussion (and upsets OP). MS is relatively straightforward compared to things like depression and psychosis, which are exponentially more abstract and mysterious and multi-facted.

I am sorry you have MS. That is terrible. I know someone who has researched it a bunch and found answers in strict dietary mods. I could PM you as we are obviously off topic now.

BTW I was dx'd with Lyme disease and have symptoms that overlap with MS. Some even theorize the former causes the latter.
