Before surgery saw Neuro and internist and rhematoidologist said test said I was moderately positive for SLE.....in DNA paternal side....two sisters with MS diagnoised by the best ,all of us. Different MS clinics..I stopped the drug ranitidine....less sweats ....pain...etc but sleep still difficult... Question this cannot be coincidence.....DNx t ms 1986 with MS..... Can four weeks after quitting that drug cause moderate change to my overal health... Thxs Main query composite mesh....painful.....i handle pain...Drs are amazed at my pain threshold...I hate drugs....can ranitidine make me so much worse and quitting that drug cause improvement...seems from my reading I should have refused the ranitidine????
