MS is the stripping of the myelin from the nerves of the central nervous system. Also there is the lipid liberation from lack of oxygen by using too much chloroform or a chronic drunk who stops breathing, the brain damage of a drowning victim. There seems to be some relation to lipid replacement like in the movie Lorenzo's Oil. We should research that some people are more susceptible to depleted oxygen when combined with lack of certain essential fats. A possible area of research could be done with Lorenzo's oil and oxygen rich therapy in a hyperbolic chamber.

Look up W.N.P. Barbellion's "The Journal of a Disappointed Man" c. 1919.

Saint Lidwina (Lydwine, Lydwid, Lidwid, Liduina of Schiedam) (April 18, 1380 – April 14, 1433) was a Dutch saint. At age 14, Lidwina was ice skating when she fell and broke a rib. She never recovered and became progressively invalid for the rest of her life. Saint Lidwina is thought to be one of the first known multiple sclerosis patients and her fall and consequent disability are attributed to the effects of the disease.

The diary of Augustus Frederick d'Este (1794–1848), an illegitimate grandson of King George III of Great Britain.

Perhaps those that suffered the disease, before it was actually identified as a disease, can give you some ideas about how to approach MS from an emotional, rather than clinical perspective.



Good luck!

Understanding that MS is extremely hard to diagnose and that it is only diagnosed by ruling everything else out may help.



It is a deterioration of myelin the covers the nerves of the whole body.



Analogy - think of an electrical cord - myelin would be the plastic outer coating. If the coating is cracked or sliced the electrical current will leak and the appliance will not work.



Hope this helps if you have anymore questions then email me

I think the following website will provide the guidelines for MS. You can take the headlines of introduction, treatment, research, and many. You are smart enough to make each section short, aren't you?
