Hi guys, I'm looking for any experiences with bees venom to help the progressive type of MS.... I'm thinking of trying it. Did any one try and recommend??
Thank you, be well.

Bee stings really did not work. I had several friends who tried it back in the day. No one kept up with it.

As of yet, there is no scientific evidence to support its use. The MS Society has looked into it some time ago (1998) and found no benefit. http://mssociety.ca/en/research/CAT980602.htm

Additional efforts to investigate its efficacy as an MS treatment have not shown it to be of use. http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/16541972?

It hasn't shown itself to be a justified approach. http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/16221950?

You asked for experiences, but this would just be anecdote. People's impressions aren't proof. As it is not covered by insurance, I'm afraid the only effect I can guarantee you is a shrinking bank balance.
