Multiple sclerosis (MS) is an autoimmune disease of the central nervous system in which white matter demyelination and axonal damage predominate. It is common in 20-50 year olds, with more women than men, and the most commonly involved sites are the brain, optic nerve, and spinal cord. The exact factors of its pathogenesis are not clear. However, it is associated with genetic factors, environmental and viral infections and other predisposing factors, for example, high prevalence in the northern United States, Canada and other regions considering the poles, and relatively low prevalence near the equator, with a prevalence of less than 5 per 100,000 in Asia. The most common first symptom in MS patients is limb weakness, which can be monoplegia, hemiplegia, paraplegia, or quadriplegia; some patients have blurred vision and decreased vision in one eye as the first symptom, and some have diplopia and impaired eye movement; it can also lead to different degrees of ataxia such as nystagmus, intentional tremor, chant-like speech, balance disorders, poor coordination, and slurred speech; it can be accompanied by sensory abnormalities ( Numbness, pain, itching), extreme fatigue, mental depression, euphoria, memory and attention loss, and other symptoms that are related to the nerve site involved. Most patients present with recurrent episodes of neurological dysfunction with multiple remission-relapses. These symptoms can recur over the course of the disease, but are unpredictable and eventually progress to lasting irreversible disability. However, note: MS is not an infectious disease, nor is it a life-threatening disease of such severity that the vast majority of patients’ life expectancy is not affected, but because of the accumulation of disability, the patient’s mobility is severely affected and normal life becomes increasingly difficult. First of all, once MS occurs, we must actively face it and give timely and regular treatment to the individual, but we must understand that: 1. MS is not an easy disease to diagnose. In the acute phase of the disease, the patient should be seen by a neurologist and given individualized and regular treatment as appropriate, while in the stable phase, disease modification therapy (DIT) is needed to prevent relapse and reduce neurological deficits. In the stable stage, disease modification therapy (DIT) is needed to prevent disease relapse, reduce neurological deficits, avoid aggravation of disability, and improve quality of life. Patients with suspected MS need to pay close attention to their clinical symptoms, maintain long-term contact with their physicians, and pay attention to outpatient follow-up reviews, including imaging, neurophysiology, and other aspects of review. 2. If you have been diagnosed with MS, do not be blindly pessimistic, but have the confidence and courage to overcome the disease. Clinically common, most patients, especially young and middle-aged men, after initially learning that they suffer from this disease, in addition to physical pain, more from the psychological pressure, from work, family pressure, all kinds of fear and worry, extreme emotional instability, some even self-abandonment, escape from reality. In this case, in addition to care from society and relatives, if necessary, you can seek help from a neuropsychological counselor, but the most important thing is to overcome self-phobia and build confidence in overcoming the disease, so we recommend that you understand some basic knowledge of MS, and need to pay extra attention to your symptoms, it is best to have a continuous detailed diary, to know that the patient himself knows his own symptoms best, you reflect The information you give to the doctor is the most crucial factor for the doctor’s treatment. You need to cooperate with your doctor to complete the necessary tests, and your doctor should inform you in detail and explain the results of the tests to ensure objectivity and accuracy. We recommend that you fix your doctor for regular checkups and follow-ups, because MS is a chronic process that requires standardized treatment and follow-ups, and you should avoid the psychology of seeking treatment in a hurry. 3. You need to know the effective treatment for MS. You should know that MS is not curable yet, and any information or advertisement claiming to cure MS is not true, so do not blindly agree. On the other hand, the fact that MS cannot be cured does not mean that it cannot be treated. There are many treatments available for MS that can not only reduce the recurrence of the disease, but also effectively control the progression of the disease, and early and reasonable treatment can significantly improve the quality of life of patients. Please keep in touch with your neurologist for a long time to facilitate standardized diagnosis and treatment. There is no absolute contraindication to MS diet, and there is no direct evidence that excessive intake of certain dietary components or lack of certain nutrients can lead to MS, nor is there evidence that food components lead to relapse of the disease. We do not recommend that MS patients change their dietary habits abruptly, but they should try to develop a reasonable dietary structure that suits their needs. MS patients should ensure adequate caloric intake and a balanced intake of nutrients, including multivitamins, especially vitamin D. Increase the intake of high-fiber as well as vitamin C-rich foods and reduce the intake of high-fat foods. In short, MS patients should learn to “live with the disease”, develop good habits and have a healthy and positive mindset. In addition, it is worth mentioning that rehabilitation exercises are often an important part of life for MS patients.
