Here is one for the record. I have MS and in the last 5 years had 3 bad relapses. Hospitalization was required. Treated with high doses of steroids to get back to any semblance of normality.
They put me on beta Interferon but I can not give myself shots and have no one to give me the shots. Anyway, it is also about $6000 a month.
Anyway on research I read D3 had some claims of great results for MS sufferers. I started taking 1000 IU once a day.
Have not taken the beta shots since 2010 and have had no worsening of symptoms since 2010. No relapses like the three I had between 2007 and 2010. I know I will never be cured of MS. It is like cancer and worth too much money to the health care industry; hospitals, doctors, pharma, and the companies that make MRI's.
All three times I was in the bills were over $35K for 4 days. Then the followup with doctors etc. With O care I do not look forward to another relapse as it will only put me on the death panel list.
O care will not want to cover me for to many more $35K relapses. It is why I nearly cried the day o care was passed. So on with the 1000 IU gell caps for life if necessary.

Good to hear it hasn’t gotten worse since you started with the D3.

Turmeric is said to help MS and even if it doesn’t, it does so many other outrageously good things, we should all take it, anyway.

1000iu is hardly anything...have you had the vitamin D3 test? You can likely take 5-10,000iu daily...unless you are getting lots of sun too of course.
