Lions Mane / supplements

This is a bit out there but I have been researching more ‘natural’ ways of helping my symptoms. I have read so much contradictory information about lions mane supplements, some for the health benefits and help it could give to people with MS, others stating that it could mess with the immune system and cause more trouble.

I’m in two minds as I would prefer to manage pain with things like CBD, physio and light exercise but am aware this might not always be the best for me. I am also a bit weary, as I watched my grandma with MS constantly take steroids and strong painkillers and she died of a heart attack at the age of 72.

Would this be a suitable conversation to have with an MS nurse?

Thank you that’s so good to know. I really want to try medical cannabis as well but it’s a bit of a taboo in our family. I just believe a lot of the answers are in nature, for a lot of things.

I don’t know where to start with it all to be honest.

Not sure I would take that option/risk but I hope it works for you

I’m glad that’s working for you. Something to discuss with my MS nurse and consultant for sure.
