For context, my boyfriend (M37) has been dealing with MS since he was in his early twenties. He went through the trials and tribulations of diagnosis (spinal tap), and medications to which he found that none of them really worked for him and has just been raw dogging life ever since then, having the occasional flare up here and there.

We have been dating for a year and I have yet to see him go through a flare up lasting longer than a few days/ a week. This time, his symptoms have been ongoing for 3 weeks or so now and I am starting to get extremely concerned. He has an appointment to see a neurologist but because of everything being booked so far out he has to wait a little while to get in. 

He is in a seemingly endless cycle of the same symptoms: fatigue, extreme dizziness to the point of impairing his ability to walk or drive, migraines that can last for days, and irritability, and electrical-type nerve pain. We were supposed to move in together soon but all of our plans have been halted as he is really affected by his condition and unable to work. I feel so bad seeing him suffer, and at the same time I have seen him way less than usual over the flare so far since he has been on and off bedridden. I have made an extra effort to let him know that being sad because i miss him so much is not his fault, but it definitely etly still has put some stress on him. I know he feels guilty and it is devastating. 

What can I do to help him? I know I can’t take away the pain but I need ideas from people who have been through this on what works and what doesn’t, even just to keep him comfortable. Any advice would be much appreciated 🙏

*TLDR* What can I do to support my boyfriend through an unusually long MS attack?
