Very spasm-y legs when I went to bed last night, but an ibuprofen and a couple of drops of cannabis oil and I slept right through. Surprising, but most welcome. It bugs me that I can’t get access to this legally without huge expense. It’s a game changer.

I suspect i might have Multiple Schlorosis in its very early stages. Among other minor symptoms the most telling is my tendency to get muscle twitches that are rhythemic in very odd muscle groups. When this happens it sticks to a particular muscle group in a reptative way for weeks or months.

Here is a video of my chin twitching as an example.

No 5km run today (I’ve heard that Sunday is meant to be a day of rest). But a reminder of why I’m running (and hey, you can still help support a VERY worthy cause at any time this month!). https://youtu.be/E_C7c9NvQVc?si=1WFPuyCuvChGzCPr https://www.themay50k.org/fundraisers/alexkidman/the-may-50k-2024

Really and why and is M$ innocent? No seriously, no matter which operating system and which software, you have to take care of and adjust their security and not ONLY with 'tools'. In my opinion, Linux & BSD do this more 'simply' and efficiently, because open source.

Christina Applegate hasn't showered in weeks, says her legs "are done" due to relapse.

We generally think Hollywood stars get excellent , but Applegate spoke of lack of response from her medical team, stating she's yet to receive assistance despite reaching out to her MDs.

And I thought I was the only one.

Bet you did, too.

MS patients face much greater risk of hospitalization, death from COVID-19, despite high rates of vaccination.

"These findings indicate that vaccination alone may not adequately protect individuals with MS from severe COVID-19 outcomes, and underscore the urgent need for additional preventive measures against COVID-19 in this vulnerable population, say researchers."

@auscovid19

Source: https://medicalxpress.com/news/2024-03-ms-patients-greater-hospitalization-death.html

The new analyses are part of the INFORM (INvestigation oF COVID-19 Risk among iMmunocompromised populations) study, which analyzed data of nearly 12 million people aged 12 years and older in England to assess COVID-19's impact, risk, and health care resource use (HCRU) among immunocompromised populations compared with the general population during the omicron wave. Previous results from INFORM found that immunocompromised individuals face disproportionate burdens from COVID-19, with substantially higher risk of developing severe COVID-19 outcomes than the general population. However, the specific burden faced by individuals with MS, which was not categorized as immunocompromised, was not assessed previously. To find out more, researchers compared the risk of COVID-19 hospitalization and death in vaccinated individuals with MS and the general population in England from 1st January to 31st December, 2022. They analyzed routinely collected, national primary and secondary care electronic data from a random sample of 25% of all individuals aged 12 years or older in England registered with the National Health Service (NHS). Subgroup analysis was conducted among individuals who had been vaccinated with three or more doses of COVID-19 vaccines by Jan 1, 2022. Of 11,990,730 individuals included in the study, 16,350 (0.1%) individuals with MS were identified.).
More than half (6,060,635) of those in the general population and more than three-quarters (12,905) of patients with MS had been fully vaccinated (received at least three doses of a COVID-19 vaccine by Jan 1, 2022). During the study, a total of 20,910 COVID-19 hospitalizations and 4,810 COVID-19 deaths were recorded in the general population, corresponding to crude overall incidence rates of 0.24 and 0.06 per 100 person-years, respectively. "We hope that these findings raise awareness that the threat of COVID-19 is still very real for many, and that vaccine boosters are inadequate to protect this clinically vulnerable group", says Professor Quint. "With new variants constantly emerging, people living with MS should be considered an important high-risk group for COVID-19 hospitalization and death for which additional preventive measures and multi-layered public health protections are urgently needed." Despite the important findings, the authors point to several limitations, including that they can't rule out the possibility that other unmeasured factors such as underlying illness and level of MS disability might have influenced the results. They also note that they did not examine the effect of use of disease-modifying therapies, time since last vaccination, type of vaccination, and prior infection.

Elevated genetic risk for multiple sclerosis emerged in steppe pastoralist populations | Nature

“Here, by using a large ancient genome dataset from the period to the Bronze Age2, along with new and post-Medieval genomes, we show that the genetic risk for rose among pastoralists from the Pontic steppe and was brought into Europe by the Yamnaya-related migration approximately 5,000 years ago. “
