Women and MS - Why We Get It More

2024-02-11に共有
Women get multiple sclerosis (MS) and autoimmune disease more than men do. Is it simply because we exist? There is new research into women, autoimmune disease, and why we get it more. In this video I share what they found in the research. Hint - it isn’t women’s hormones.

  • I love that you "geek out" on information too 😂 great video, interesting about the male mice, when actually MS affects woman more than men?! 🤔. Great to hear that more woman are going onto clinical trials - surprisingly mine was all woman and no men! Well done in putting this out there it's so important to be able to have a say and possibly change the way research is carried out 🧡🤟
  • This video is excellent, Vicki!!! You share so much great information!!!!
  • Hello and thank you for the videos you put out. I have a question and that is do my symptoms sound like MS? I'll try to make it short. 19-21yrs I started with hand tremors( I used to drink too). 21-25yrs was more hand tremors, muscle twitching and jerks and I developed terrible anxiety and panic attacks( still drinking a little heavier). 25-28yrs was hand and head tremors, full body jerks and muscle twitching all over with new areas, mind Fog/slowness, vibrations in body when still, creepy crawling feelings,slight headaches, heavy feeling in chest for months on and off. 28-30yrs( I'm 30 now and haven't drank for over a year) and still muscle twitching, no extreme anxiety or panic attacks, weird vision at time(shuttering,floating objects, quick blackness at if someone turned the lights on and off quickly), headaches everyday and feel like explosion that expand,mind fog,bad memory, still mind slowness or fog,jerks, muscle feel rigid when i move at times. These symptoms come and go and I have days/ weeks when I feel normal and then they come back. The muscle twitching is always there but it is worse in my face. For almost 2 months I had an eye twitch with pain and painful to move eye and then a lip touch for about a month. I have hard at times regulating body temp. I had an MRI 3yrs ago with dye and nothing. oh and painful urination on and off but more on...lol. Oh i wanted to add weakness but in and off but tired all the time
