Suggest Remedy For Muscle Spasms And Difficulty In Breathing While Having MS

i have multiple sclerosis, and am not yet on the right long-term treatment, so i am struggling daily with a LOT of symptoms. lately i have had muscle spasms in my quads and arms, and also alongside that difficulty breathing. it started as only at night and now its constant all day. it is like thinking you have to yawn, but you can t, and for a moment you can t get any air at all. i wondered if this could be muscle spasms in the diaphragm or something?

Hi,

1. As you are a diagnosed case of MS [multiple sclerosis], thus symptom which you have mentioned: unable to open mouth is called 'puckering' and is because of hardening of the skin and also breathlessness problem is there which means MS has first affected the lungs.

2. Remain under constant supervision of a neurologist, and because MS is an autoimmune disease, it affects multiple systems. Thus ayurvedic treatment of MS is aimed at treating the disease's basic pathology, reducing the number of attacks, improving one's recovery from attacks, halting or slowing down the disease's progression, and treating the immune dysfunction.

3. in Ayurveda we consider the disease under 'AMA': which is formed due to weakness of the 'AGNI' [digestive fire], thus if the Agni is promoted it can reduce 'AMA' which causes reduction and prevention of further production of auto-antibodies, hence ultimately disease activity of the autoimmune disorders can be controlled or minimized, thus 'Deepan' and 'Pachan' drugs are used [digestive and carminatives]

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Munish Sood, Ayurveda Specialist
