My friend has MS. He says that some spice in Indian food helps. No joke, I think it begins with a C (but I'm pretty sure its not Curry).
Years ago he was taking some experimental treatment this company AutoImmune Inc. was making, but I don't think it worked that well for him.
I'll email my friend and ask him what the spice is and let you know.
Also, I do know that he had his fillings (in his teeth) removed and replaced with gold fillings. I believe the gold is supposed to help as well.

AVONEX has been available for over 10 years, and since 1998 it's the #1 prescribed MS treatment* in the U.S. and worldwide for many reasons, including:
AVONEX is effective at treating both relapses and physical disability
AVONEX offers once-a-week convenience
AVONEX is prescribed to treat relapsing forms of multiple sclerosis, to decrease the number of flare-ups and slow the occurrence of some of the physical disability common in people with MS.
While there is no cure for multiple sclerosis, medical advances over the last decade have given people with MS hope. Multiple sclerosis treatments like AVONEX are available to help many people with relapsing-remitting MS maintain active and independent lives.
Whether you are newly diagnosed or have lived with multiple sclerosis (MS) for some time, you are not alone. More than 400,000 people in the U.S. are living with multiple sclerosis. And many of them choose and trust AVONEX as their multiple sclerosis treatment.
Since its approval in 1996, tens of thousands of people with multiple sclerosis have taken AVONEX. More people take AVONEX than any other MS treatment available. Â There are many reasons people who use AVONEX may find it easier to stay with AVONEX and, in fact, stay with it longer.
AVONEX can cause serious side effects, so before you start taking AVONEX, you should talk with your healthcare provider about the possible side effects to decide if AVONEX is right for you.

Treatment, perhaps?
One of my classmate's moms has MS and her doctor advised her to drink alcohol in moderation for relaxation purposes. I don't recommend you go out and get wasted, though.

I saw a show on this woman, whom after years of different treatments, was given up on by doctors, and this man had experimented with his wife, for her arthritis, bee stings. Regular honey bees. the woman was bed ridden, today she walks, and has a pretty normal life. look it up online. I hope you're not allergic to bees. it's amazing.
