After seeing numerous neurologists, I was given the diagnosis of MULTIPLE SCLEROSIS. I was given medication, which helped, but my condition was rapidly deteriorating. Ultimately, I learned about the useful MS-4 protocol at vinehealthcentre. com. This treatment has helped greatly with reducing my symptoms, it was even more effective than the prescription drugs I was using. My tremors mysteriously disappeared after the first month of medication, and I was able to walk better. Within 4 months on this treatment most of my symptoms has vanished. The MS-4 protocol is a total game changer for me. I’m surprised more people with MS don’t know it. This MS-4 protocol is a breakthrough

A good book for people or friends of people with MS to let them know that they aren't alone in their struggle. The essays are very short, so you can't get overloaded and describe the fear, challenges, acceptance, sadness, confusion, grief, and accomplishments that come with this disease. I. Think most people with MS will recognize some of these emotions and the experiences people write about and most caregivers and family members will as well. It is not all uplifting, but it is all helpful to hear when grappling with an unpredictable disease.
