Have you ever had that moment where you totally changed your point of
view on something? Not something like whether you like carrots or spinach, but something that you strongly believed in? Not so long ago MS had me. Even though I have a great support system of family, friends, and doctors my health was declining and I wasn't sure where I was headed. After being diagnosed I went through numerous medicines, doctors, and therapies. Not to mention braces and canes. It really seemed that things weren't going to improve anytime soon, or ever? Can you improve your health, even when you feel you have the MonSter inside of you? I was getting used to reading "that's just MS!" as an explanation for just about anything and everything from headaches and fatigue to skin ailments. I was starting to think I might be on an out of control ride with a disease that was quickly ruining me. Then it got worse, I picked up some sort of "mono like" virus that crippled me for weeks. I thought I wasn't going to last much longer. But I changed MY mind, I wasn't going to lay there and take it anymore. I made drastic changes to my life in changing my diet, my workout routine and the outlook I possessed on my body. Since taking a stand things have improved exponentially. No more robo leg or cane, no more being exhausted constantly and twitchy. Yes there are still tired days and exhaustion, but not as often and not for as long. Have you changed your mind about MS, have you made any positive changes and gotten results? You can do it, change your mind and take back what is yours, fight on! Be a Warrior Today, Donn

Thank you for the inspiration/motivation around cutting out nightshades. I have definitely noticed a change in my overall well-being after cutting them out a week ago. I was only eating potatoes and peppers, but now that they are out, I can notice instant fatigue with a few bites of potato. Amazing what an affect food has.
