My MS started causing problems with my eyes since I can remember and to this day it always seems to be an ongoing issue - it's like the weakest part of my body. Here's a video of another invisible symptom of Multiple Sclerosis - Retrobulbar Neuritis, a form of Optic Neuritis.

Hello Laura, ok..... How can I explain this ? It has been 20 years that I have been diagnosed with the same condition. I have felt pretty much all these types of symptoms as well, even the double vision . The first few years , it was really difficult for me with the treatments. 1rst it was Avonex, then it was Rebif, but also the steroid shots at the hospital for my eye sight etc... . Because there was always some discomforting side effects while taking the treatments,with a leap of faith ,I decided stopped all of this.I was fed up as a college student , being sick all the time . I prayed and I also did a lot of researches , to find out I should eat anti inflammatory foods , and most of the raw veggies are anti inflammatory . Spices such as ginger ,black pepper and curcuma help reduce inflammation. I used to also suffer with severe migraines . So, I had to drastically change my diet . I stopped the dairies ,stopped eating meat, I even stopped eating fish . I eat mostly raw food. To cleanse the blood ,I would suggest that you make a parsley and ginger drink. Wishing you great luck on the road of recovery.

Hey Laura. Hang in there, M.S is nothing but ups and downs if you think about it; you just gotta adapt. Btw; did you ever see the human CNS 😱 we are such delicate creatures with fragile bodies, you're spot on. Hey just keep fighting, the remission will hopefully come 😀

You would think that something could be done about symptoms like this here in 2023 in the medical community...but there you go. So i guess its up to you as usual to get after it laura on this and fix it yourself as you seem to have done so many times before...at least your not having too much or any actual visual damage apparently which is good. Best of luck.
