* Rapid eye movement sleep behavior disorder (RBD) is a parasomnia characterized by brief recurrent episodes of loss of muscle atonia during rapid eye movement sleep, with enacted dreams that cause sleep disruption.  
* MS patients have an increased risk compared with the general population to be affected by a sleep disturbance, including RBD. Patients affected, however, uncommonly can present RBD as the first clinical manifestation of MS without other neurologic deficits. These clinical presentations have usually been attributed to inflammatory lesions in the pedunculopontine nuclei, located in the dorsal pons. We present a case of RBD in a 38-year-old woman who was later diagnosed as having MS due to imaging findings and development of focal neurologic deficits. MS should be considered among the differential diagnoses in patients who present with symptoms of RBD, particularly if they are young and female.<ref>Enriquez-Marulanda A, Quintana-Peña V, Takeuchi Y, Quiñones J.

Clinic

  • MS is a demyelinating autoimmune disease of nervous system.
Specific symptoms: Related disease MS types
  • Double vision / Blindness in one eye
  • Muscle weakness
  • Trouble with sensation
  • Incoordination
  • Cognitive disturbance
 I think MS is an umbrella covering a list of demyelinating disease. I suggest a new classification Considering sign / Symptoms which equals the localization of demyelination.
  • Autonomic
  • Visual
  • Motor
  • Sensory
  • Vestibular
  • Cerebellar

Miasmatic analysis

In order to find appropriate miasm, I need to know series of miasms which could cause Encephalomyelitis. Then the localized involvement could specialized the miasm. ADEM could be a good choice.

MS types

 Pathology Sign / Symptoms Entities Miasms Suggested

Remedies

Vestibular MS

(49–59%)

Intra-pontine 8th nerve fascicle involvement= Acute Vestibular Syndrome (AVS)
  • Vertigo, dizziness Imbalance
  • Impaired functional ability, contribute to falls and significant health and social care costs
 Gels

Alum

Autonomic MS
Cardiovascular / Thermoregulatory function during exercise

Due to Hypothalamus temperature regulation disorder.

  • Uhthoff's sign: Agg from higher than usual temperatures
  • Attenuated elevations in blood pressure during exercise can negatively impact blood flow to skeletal muscle.
  • Diminished sweating during exercise
 RBOL
Bowel MS:

Bowel accidents can also be caused by reduced sensation in back passage, so he dose not recognize the urge to go to the toilet, and reduced control of the muscles at the bottom of his anus.

  • Constipation due to Decreased or slowed Bowel motility.
  • Hard plug of impacted stool builds up in the back passage,
  • Overflow incontinence: A loose, watery stool can leak out
 Alum
Bladder MS:Urge incontinence (8%): Spastic/ Overactive bladder:
  • Incontinence: Unable to hold urine
  • Frequency / Urgency
  • Hesitancy / Difficulty in starting urination
  • ADEM / Brain-stem
  • Incontinence
  • Frequency / Urgency
 Caust
Bladder MS:

Overflow

  • Bladder that does not empty properly
  • Nocturia
 Bladder does not empty properly (retains some urine in it) HSV-1
UMN

MS

Corticospinal tract involvement
  • ADEM
  • Spasticity
  • Paralysis/Weakness:
  • Hyper Reflexia
  • Reflexes, Primitive
Cerebellar MS Alum

Phys

Cognitive MS
  • 40-65 % Cognition skills such as
  • Cognitive miasms: VZV, EBV, HHV-6, CMV, HSV-2, RBOL, HSV-1
  • Aphasic Miasms: VZV
  • Memory
  • Attention span
  • Information processing (Decision making, Problem solving)
  • Visual-Spatial Abilities
  • Verbal Fluency: Word-Hunting or mixing words
  • VZV
  • EBV
  • INFL
  • MMP
Painful MS Central sensitization and second Hyper Stasia
  • There are two different form first . It seems that both of them have same maiasmatic origin.
  • Central sensitization and sensory MS could be explained commonly.
  • Hyper Stasia
  • Dysesthesia
  • HSV-1
  • HSV-2
  • HTLV-1

RBD

  • Rapid eye movement sleep behavior disorder (RBD) is a parasomnia characterized by brief recurrent episodes of loss of muscle atonia during rapid eye movement sleep, with enacted dreams that cause sleep disruption.
  • MS patients have an increased risk compared with the general population to be affected by a sleep disturbance, including RBD. Patients affected, however, uncommonly can present RBD as the first clinical manifestation of MS without other neurologic deficits. These clinical presentations have usually been attributed to inflammatory lesions in the pedunculopontine nuclei, located in the dorsal pons. We present a case of RBD in a 38-year-old woman who was later diagnosed as having MS due to imaging findings and development of focal neurologic deficits. MS should be considered among the differential diagnoses in patients who present with symptoms of RBD, particularly if they are young and female.[1]
