Really!?!
See that says something to me. You are being given something to boost your immunity, yet isn’t MS an Auto-immunine disease?
One would think that anyone with auto-immune problems should not get one of these.
Actually anything that boosts the immune response, messes with MS.
We take interferons (some of us) to modulate our immune systems so they don’t attack our nerves (myelin.)
A cold, a bladder infection, anything that hypes up your immune response will cause a rise in symptoms. They warn against taking immune boosters such as echinacea for the same reason. Our immune systems are not suppressed or lacking.
Normally I don’t catch many viruses, or colds. The whole family can pass it around, but I’ll stay healthy...one advantage to having an immune system on hyper drive, LOL.
In severe exacerbations they give steroids to suppress the immune response..I, personally, rather wait out the flares as steroids and I don’t get along too well.
