Whether you are newly diagnosed or have been living with MS for a while, the article I linked below is a good read on the impact of stress on MS. There’s a great list, towards the end, that features ways to reduce stress and ultimately help us feel better. That’s the hope anyway!
True…
• Stress overheats the body, which then may aggravate our MS symptoms
• Stress may also reduce the effects of our MS meds
• Advice? Make stress reduction a priority in your life
I know, I know. Nothing new here but we all know that stress is bad and this article serves as a great reminder.

Hope everyone is chillin’

It’s always good to be reminded that stressing out is not good for your MS
Why, hello there! My name is Christie and I am a number crunching photographer who loves riding my bike really, really fast!

Hello Christie,
ReplyDeleteI am a Healthline health and wellness writer, and I was wondering if you would be open to a guest post on your blog. I thought a piece on staying cool with MS (now and through the summer!) might interest your readers. Otherwise, I would be happy to write about beating MS fatigue with simple, natural tricks. Let me know if you're interested! I will look forward to hearing from you.
Thanks and take care,
Katie Brind'Amour
Hi Katie, nice to meet you. I just sent you an email and look forward to the collaboration. Best, Christie
