I have had spMs for some time and seem to have dropped off the map as far as NHS is concerned. I take no medication. I would love to have a satsuma - well it is Christmas but oranges are taboo - as I was taken off medication ( Gabapentim) could I not just have one now and again?
Why are you not allowed oranges @ahallone ? I’ve always eaten oranges and especially those little ones available at this time of the year.. satsumas, tangerines clementimes.

When I was diagnosed in 2006 I was given a dietary list of foods not to eat and one was oranges and the like. It is also what the MS Nurse told me and so I have not eaten one since. Now I can’t find any reference to this in the various MS dietary pages. Seems like it is OK now so I’ll give it a go. Thanks for replying.

Yes eat Satsumas 3 a day. I’ve no faith in the medication. Nothing seems to have any positive effect on me but fresh oranges are one of the joys in life x
Hi @ahallone , I too have SPMS, nearly 20yrs now and I’ve always eaten oranges, love satsumas, no ones ever told me not too.
