My Supplement Regimen

I’ve had requests from several of my clients recently and from some readers to post a list of my daily supplement regimen, so today I’ve done that. If you’re not taking supplements, you’re missing a crucial opportunity to support and strengthen your body, help it heal, and decrease your symptoms. The downside of supplements...

The Importance of Story

I was in San Francisco for a seminar when I was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis. The day after receiving the call, I remember riding across the Golden Gate Bridge on the bus back to the airport. I was still in shock, and felt like one might after a major breakup, or someone’s unexpected death...

Upheaval

Upheaval

Status quo can only last so long. I was reminded of that this week as various aspects of my life simultaneously imploded, forcing me to make decisions between bad and worse and resulting in a massive upheaval of my current life, both personally and logistically. I looked up the word “upheaval” in the dictionary....

Heroes are Selfish

Today has been one of those ever-so-familiar days in which my ex-husband has chosen to go on an email rampage, attacking my character, threatening me and assuring me that my four-year-old daughter will know what a horrible person I am someday. In other words, it’s been one of those days when I need to...

Don’t Go There

A few nights ago I was having dinner with my very wise friend Kiela. During the meal I was telling her about a heated disagreement I had with a friend, let’s call her Melissa. I was telling her the story, and when it came time to quote myself, I raised my voice, sped up...

My Big Toe

My Big Toe

I never told anyone about my big toe. I don’t mean the nail, or the padded bottom, but right at the tip – the part that sometimes stubs itself on a wall, that part. Sometimes it feels like a thin needle is pricking that part, entering the skin, and that the needle is maybe...

The MS Symptom Nobody Told You About

It was July of 2007 and I was waiting for the most important results of my life. I had had my first MRI two days before I was scheduled to leave town for a training in California with Dr. Joseph Riggio. The results I was awaiting  would either confirm or not that I had...

The Winter is Killing Me

The Winter is Killing Me

I was born on April 24th. Apparently that makes me a shoe-in for MS. In today’s UK Telegraph online, it read “Scientists found mothers who were pregnant during the autumn and winter were most likely to give birth to those who would suffer from the debilitating neurological disease.” Awesome! The Scotland-based study, published in...

2 1/2 Years and No Progression

2 1/2 Years and No Progression

Yesterday I had an appointment with my neurologist, who I’ll refer to from here forward as Dr. N. This was my second appointment with him. My first was a month earlier, when I explained that I had been treating my MS with diet and supplements alone, and LDN beginning in March of 2009, and...
