Mathew Embry’s July 28, 2025, post about his Ocrevus infusion was bold. He challenged a cornerstone of MS treatment, stating that Ocrevus may not stop disability progression for multiple sclerosis. For those newly diagnosed or taking Ocrevus, this is a tough reality. What does the future hold if even potent drugs fall short? The manufacturer’s warnings—infusion reactions, infections, and rare but serious risks like progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy (PML)—add to the fear. These risks, while not universal, are real and daunting when planning your health journey.
Challenging a popular MS drug like Ocrevus invites backlash. Big Pharma, doctors, and patients—some on the drug, some not—defend the mainstream approach. Embry, a vocal advocate for alternative MS strategies, likely faced this storm. We know it well. Eight years ago, when my wife was diagnosed with MS, we studied the data and didn’t like the odds: drugs might slow progression but don’t stop it, and side effects loomed large. So, we forged our own path—a holistic one—and it changed everything.
Our approach wasn’t backed by clinical trials but by the truth of our experience. We used natural, homeopathic remedies tailored to my wife’s mental, emotional, and physical symptoms. We saw MS holistically: Soul, Mind, Emotions, Body. Stress, a known MS trigger, became our focus. We learned to reduce it through mindfulness, relaxation, and better emotional expression. Instead of reacting to life’s challenges, we responded with calm. We broke old patterns, choosing growth and learning deep soul lessons about resilience and self-awareness.
Did it work? YES! Two years later, my wife’s MS symptoms were dramatically reduced, and she returned to work—a milestone we never imagined. Science hasn’t studied our methods, but that doesn’t make them less real. Sharing our story, like Embry’s post, often meets resistance. It sparks cognitive dissonance: if natural methods can help, why aren’t doctors or Big Pharma exploring them? This confusion can leave patients stuck, torn between conventional treatments and paths like ours.
To those diagnosed with MS: keep an open mind and use common sense to question everything. Don’t accept treatments blindly—ask what they do, weigh the risks, and explore all options. Your health deserves scrutiny and curiosity, not just conformity to the status quo.
As Tertullian is said to have written, “The first reaction to truth is hatred.” Embry’s post, like our journey, faced disdain for challenging the norm. Yet, we share to inspire hope. Holistic methods—homeopathy, stress reduction, emotional growth—worked for us. They may resonate with you, too.
