Repost - FYI:
Sorry in advance for the long read:
For cognitive, fatigue issues, brain fog the medication Ampyra might help. It’s worth a try. See video as it mentions that it can help any where there is demyelination.👇

Smart drug Armodafinil is a good drug for your toolbox.

Next is a webinar that mentions MS meds and how they compare to each other. This info is scattered all over the internet and great to have it in one webinar. A must see.

Thank you so much. I was thinking about starting a journal with all of my medical information in it. When my hands are tingly etc.

What I try to do is keep notes about things that happen. I was able to track when for example, my vertigo began and when it ended. I was able to see this happened from October to December-date specific! So I think doing this helps them figure things. Also, take any MRI results etc with you that may be from other Drs.
