I am going to pop in here after reading the food list....

MS symptoms share symptoms with low B12.

Here is a video that includes a young man who was undiagnosed with low B12:

If you have had a B12 level done, and were told "normal" I'd suggest you get those numbers. Ranges in US are still very low and unflagged for doctors. The new low is 400pg/ml.

If you haven't had the test, then please get one. You may discover that your vision and symptoms respond to B12 treatment. Using methylcobalamin which is the active form orally is best, since the injections are synthetic and some people have a genetic error and cannot activate them.

This is my B12 thread, with many medical links:
http://neurotalk.psychcentral.com/thread85103.html

Some of the members on the MS forum already use methylB12.
Optic neuritis can also be due to low B12 levels...so it is really important up front to have this done NOW, rather than later.

New estimates are that up to 40% of people in the US are lower than 400pg/ml and have neurological symptoms. If not identified early, these may become permanent.

So please do this for yourself, now.
