Are you being serious? B12 deficiency can mimic certain aspects of it, but it doesn't have the ANA present, or any of the other markers present for diagnosis. No, I was lying.   From what I've read, it seems likely that people with MS have a problem with B12 metabolism. carnage44 Posted at 11:59 pm on Oct. 22, 2008 Quote: from shadowpool at 2:57 am on Oct. 23, 2008 I would really like to know the difference between vitamin B12 deficiency and MS.

It is certainly not a cure, but could have some hope to curtail and possibly reverse some of the brain problems that develop. I'm intrigued with the research of autoimmune disease, especially where they wipe out the immune system with high levels of a chemotherapy drug and allow it to basically "reboot" itself. It's fascinating. shadowpool Posted at 11:57 pm on Oct. 22, 2008 I would really like to know the difference between vitamin B12 deficiency and MS.  There doesn't seem to be one.
