11. my sis has had relapsing-remitting for over 20 years-since moving out of country only attack was
Edited on Mon May-12-08 11:01 PM by fed-up
after she was involved in a car crash
she also had slowly gone off all her meds over a period of a year (and yes, they had her on at least nine)
her diet has also improved and is almost all home grown or local FRESH food, very little beef if any

STRESS is a huge factor in triggering attacks

My guess would be that the Prozac calms/sedates people and helps aleviate stress




I am not suggesting people move out of the country to reduce attacks, but I am suggesting that working on stress levels may help if one does not want to go the chemical route


edited to add that she started with relapsing-remitting which turned into chronic-progressive about 10 or so years ago
