MS and fatigue

A medial report published recently in Swiss shows that meditation or mindfulness practice may help people who are struggling  through every day and having difficulties in sleeping through the night with a ton of worries. 

In a professional medical term, such people are diagnosed with multiple sclerosis (MS). More easily speaking, they suffer from depression and anxiety, grounded in a nervous system disease that occurs in early adulthood. The disease also can cause muscle weakness and memory problems. 

According to the research, the majority of MS patients went through the symptom of feeling fatigued all the time, which even made their lives miserable.  Chronic fatigue refers to severe, continued tiredness that is not relieved by rest and is not directly caused by other medical conditions.

That's what I am experiencing nowadays although I am unsure that the feeling or condition originates from my physically weak body metabolism or psychologically dysfunctional metal system.

But another research proved that chronic fatigue syndrome does exist physically unlike the old belief that there would be no such syndrome because it all comes from your own weak imagination. 

To alleviate the symptom, doctors recommend relaxation and stress-reduction practice through meditation. 

In other words, there seems to be no panacea for MS or tiredness, but the only recommendation for current patients and future ones is to embrace meditation.

So how?

Find specialists who live on it. 

Where?

India, the country of Yoga

When?

You have enough money to buy flight tickets

Why? 

I mean, you don't wanna waste your time and money with quacks in America. 

Who?

Real gurus should be around Indian rivers or deep mountains, practicing meditation by crossing their legs around their neck, and never sleeping for at least ten days. 

Anything else?

If you really can't afford a trip to India, find Indian students and ask them to be 

your meditation teacher. 

   

A new Swiss study reports that a form of meditation known as mindfulness may help patients with multiple sclerosis.

Patients with MS — a nervous system disease that typically surfaces in early adulthood and can cause muscle weakness, coordination/balance problems and thinking and memory problems, among other symptoms — often suffer from depressionand anxiety.

The study compared multiple sclerosis patients who meditated to MS patients who didn't. Dr. Moses Rodriguez, a professor of neurology and immunology at the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minn., who's familiar with the study's findings, said meditation is safe and cheaper than the drugs that MS patients take.

"Patients should try it and see if it is helpful for them," Rodriguez added.
