Dear Dr. Donohue My 53-year-old son was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis in September 2011. He functions quite well, has a small limp and goes to work in his office regularly. Recently, he had an MRI scan. His doctor told him: "There is one new lesion on your brain MRI. I wouldn't change anything now but recommend you come back in six months for another scan." I feel he should have more attention sooner. F.C. Answer Let me provide you and readers with a few facts on multiple sclerosis before I answer your question. As many as 350,000 Americans suffer from this illness yearly. Its onset usually begins between the ages of 20 and 50. The basic problem is a stripping away of the insulation material, myelin, from nerves that permit the transmission of information from brain to spinal cord through electric signals. Without myelin, the electric transmission isn't possible: It's short-circuited. That brings on muscle weakness, loss of sensation and the many other signs and symptoms of this disease. Current teaching holds that the body's immune system is responsible for attacking the myelin nerve covering. I'm taking it that your son suffers from the most common variety of MS, relapsing-remitting. … Continue reading →

19-06-2012 11:39 It's tragic to be sure, even if it takes a celebrity to bring the problem to light. Jack Osbourne - son of pop singer Ozzy Osbourne - was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis several days ago. As is likely the case with any newly-diagnosed MS sufferer, the question he soon began as king is, "Now what?" The answer was, though brave, also obvious... begin treatments, and fight. Unfortunately, Osbourne soon found out what the United States' 400000 multiple sclerosis patients (and the world's 2.5 million MS patients) already know too well... there is no cure, and treatment options aren't all that great either. That may not be the case for much longer, however. Though a true 'cure' isn't on the table yet, some treatments are proving to be effective, and a cure isn't out of the question.One of the more effective treatments us a drug called Fampyra, jointly made by Biogen Idec (NASDAQ:BIIB) and Acorda Therapeutics Inc. (NASDAQ:ACOR). Though the drug was approved for specific use - to improve casual walking in multiple sclerosis patients - in the United States a couple of years ago, it was only approved for the same use in Europe late last month. It's … Continue reading →

Jack Osbourne, reality TV star and son of rock god Ozzy Osbourne, told People magazine that he has been diagnosed with multiple sclerosis. The long-term outlook for Osbourne's health, however, apparently is not nearly as dire as the news might suggest. Treatment for symptoms is available that could allow Osbourne to lead a full life with few complications, despite MS, some doctors say. "I was just angry and frustrated and kept thinking, 'Why now?'" Osbourne, 26, said. "I've got a family and that's what's supposed to be the most important thing." The news came two weeks after his fiance Lisa Stelly gave birth to their daughter Pearl Clementine. Osbourne said he noticed that he lost most of his vision in his right eye. "The timing was so bad", Jack told HELLO! Magainze. "I'd just had a baby, work was going great ... I kept thinking: 'Why now?'" Follow us Multiple sclerosis is an autoimmune disease that attacks the central nervous system, which has no known cure. Its symptoms include difficulties in vision, loss of muscle control, balance and in severe cases, paralysis. It is usually diagnosed in people in their 20s, and 30s.

Innate Immunotherapeutics MS drug to go to second trial Auckland, NZ, June 19 2012: New Zealand biopharmaceutical company Innate Immunotherapeutics says trials of its drug to help people with chronic, progressive multiple sclerosis (MS) are showing positive results. Simon Wilkinson, chief executive of Innate Immunotherapeutics, says results of the Phase 1/2 clinical trial have shown MIS416 to be well tolerated and identified a clinical dose for further evaluation. MIS416 is the lead product from the Auckland-based biopharmas proprietary immune modulating microparticle technology. Neurologist Professor Tim Anderson, co-principal investigator for the study, says the preliminary data indicate that MIS416 was safe and well tolerated. The MS-related clinical status assessment tools used during the study also indicate that the trial agent may have had some positive effect for many of the treated patients. During the dose confirmation portion of the study, eight of 10 patients with secondary progressive MS treated with MIS416 for 12 weeks showed some improvement in their MS-related signs and symptoms. For example, 50% of the study subjects showed some improvement in EDSS scores over the relatively short 12 week duration of the trial, Professor Anderson says. These interim results are encouraging and merit the consideration of a randomised, … Continue reading →

17 June 2012 Last updated at 22:58 ET By Dominic Hughes Health correspondent, BBC News New research suggests the number of children suffering from multiple sclerosis may be higher than previously thought. It remains a very rare condition and only a third of young people who have an attack will go on to develop MS in later life. But it can have a devastating affect on children and their families. One of those is 15-year-old Emily Murdoch from Cannock in Staffordshire. Like many girls her age, she loves horses and has been riding since she was a little girl. One day she hopes to represent Britain in competition, but she does not know if it will be in the Olympics or Paralympics. At the age of 12, Emily was diagnosed with childhood multiple sclerosis. An attack can leave her confined to a wheelchair when her legs stop working. She suffers from severe tiredness, muscle spasms and numb hands and legs. "It's not really very nice," she says "especially when my legs go on me, because it's the second time my legs have gone on me." View post: "My battle against childhood MS" … Continue reading →
