Living with MS can be an exercise in frustration. It can be hard to get a diagnosis in the first place. Once you have your diagnosis, finding a treatment that works can be just as hard. MS is becoming more recognised and the subject of more research. Getting the right multiple sclerosis treatment in London, for you, can be a challenge.
What Treatments Are Available for MS?
There is no cure for MS. Treatment options are focused on minimising symptoms and then speeding up recovery time following attacks.
To help manage symptoms when an attack happens you can use corticosteroids or try plasma exchange. To help you manage your daily life you may be offered physical therapy. Muscle relaxants, drugs to help reduce fatigue or to ease your joints. Along with this, you may be prescribed a whole range of medications to deal with associated issues, such as depression, pain, insomnia and incontinence.
If you have one of the progressive forms of MS you may also be able to try some treatments that aim to slow the progression of the disease.
Basically, there are a lot of options and combinations. There is no one size fits all treatment plan. To find the right fit you need to talk to an experienced neurologist.
