I am 58 with chronic, progressive MS. Asked neuro about taking Biogen. He said unproven, and suggested Vitamin D3. What do you all think?

Need some help. Still walking a little and working full time, lifting weights and exercising 3 mornings a week at gym. Do these supplement make a difference for others?

I may be a little confused here. You said you asked your Neuro about taking Biogen? Biogen is actually a pharmaceutical company that produces some of the medications we take.

Was it a DMT made by Biogen that you were talking about?

Thank you @A MyMSTeam Member, I will request a script from my neurologist. I appreciate the information. Hope you are doing well.

Here are the most recent results of the Biotin trials. As someone with PPMS, and currently taking Biotin, I continue to be encouraged and very optimistic.

Here are the results from the MD1003 - Biotin trials by MedDay in France.
