Mercury Amalgam Fillings

  • Fact Friday
Mercury Amalgam Fillings
There have been many theories and much research undertaken over the years about the possibility of a link between mercury fillings and MS. Back in 1984, research found that MS patients had eight times the normal level of mercury in their celebral spinal fluid, than those in the control group of people who did not have MS. Then, in 2015 a report published by the European Commission found there is…

HEAL
The Fact Friday post today is to hightlight the relatively new group on Guernsey, who are fighting for us to have the same drugs that would be available to us,  if we were living in the UK. Many of you have probably either heard about or read about this group, but for those of you who haven't I am giving you the link to their Facebook page. David and I attended the first meeting of this group…

No! not more fog.

Brain Fog
I know I have touched on this earlier in the year but it is such a common symptom of MS and one that I stuggle with, so I thought to share it again with you.  Brain fog can affect us in many different ways, our memory, spatial awareness, word finding, our ability to process information,  and our ability to organise and plan. i have chosen a different site for you to look at, but if you want…

The question of MS and Dairy products?

08/11/2019
  • Fact Friday
Dairy products and MS
There has been a lot of research into dairy and the affect on MS. A research back in 2010 in the journal of Autommune Disearch found that cow’s milk is not only high in saturated fat, but contains  two proteins in that can negatively affect people with MS.   See the full article below and a further article which I found  on the 'Overcoming MS' website. As with all the Fact Friday…

Our wet Christmas Fayre

Christmas Fayre
A big thank you to all who came and supported our Christmas Fayre.  We did worry that the weather might put people off coming out, but many of you braved the weather, so thank you. Thank you must also go to the team of helpers without whom we could not have put the event on. It was a very successful afternoon, and you can be sure that all the money raised will stay on Guernsey to support all…

Seated Exercises
We all know that exercises are good for us.  However, if you have reduced mobility this can be difficult.  But by doing some gentle seated exercises, which can be done at home, you can help improve mobility and prevent falls. Beau Sejour have written a pamphlet entitled 'Seated Home Exercises' and have kindly let the MS Society have a link to them, so check them out…

Volunteer
I recently attended a meeting about the power of the voluntary sector organised by the Association of Guernsey Charities.  'Time Well Spent' is a major new report published in January 2019 by the National Council for Voluntary Organisations on the whole volunteering experince. I had not realised the huge impact that volunteering can have not only on the community but on the individual…

This year's Christmas Fayre is a little earlier than usual, but I hope that will not stop you coming to join us and making a start on your Christmas shopping. We have many stalls this year including a vast array of homemade crafts, such as jewellery, embroidered items, and wraps. There will also be homemade cakes, a raffle table, second hand books, homemade garden produce, and of course we wil be…
