I have been diagnosed with MSA Type 3 since 2017. I can climb stairs up and lose balance on the way down. I also have low BP associated dizziness. These are controllable for now. I dunno where this is going to take me.

I must tell you that this made me set up and take note. You see my doctor just told me that I have a problem with my level of D vitamin – my blood work was back.

Dear MalcolmReev;
I can’t begin to tell you just how much pain I seem to have to put up with these days! This started about a year ago when I noticed my feet and legs would feel like they had fallen asleep- you know, tengali like. But as time went on they began to hurt more and more. The doctors gave me “Acetaminophen 500 mg. Which I take 2…
