Does Faith have chemo therapy for her MS? My niece has MS and she said sometimes it is used for it?

"Does Faith have chemo therapy for her MS?"

Yes. She's had many chemo treatments.
All of these diseases in which the body is essentially attacking itself have similiar treatment regimens.
Faith is presently on a high concentration dose once a month in a series of three instead of the normal lighter dose twice weekly as she has had in the past.
This method appears to be the best for her, but it's not necessarily the best for any other MS patient.
All MS patients have different symptoms and different reactions to different drugs, although there is some commonality among all.
It is a very perplexing disease.
