The placebo effect

When I was first diagnosed I was offered Rebif and I did inject for a while, but as I didnt stick to the routine and kept missing injections, I dont think that I had total faith in it,  I then decided, as I was not using it correctly, I decided to stop.

Since knowing my diagnosis of Remitting relapsing, I never went into full remission, I have had ongoing bladder and balance issues, I doubt anyone fully remits, if there are alternative underlying issues. Some may look ok on the outside, but inside they are twisting.

I think DMDs and LDN have a placebo effect, therefore any statistics of how much they reduce episodes, is a false account, theres no possible way of knowing.

And I imagine that a very high percentage of people inevitably become wheelchair bound, because misalignment of the bodys structure make it impossible to stand. Even walking with a stick for me was all wrong, I couldnt do that, as I had no walking rythm, I was wonky.

I have a tai chi and yogalates video that I purchased three years ago, unopened as it is futile to excercise when wonky, I'll wait til I am straight.
