I was diagnosed with MS in 2005 nothing changed until 2009. I have such excruitiating knee pain in my left knee and the ankle does not flex either in the left foot. Does anyone else have these symptoms. Not sure it is all related to MS, but doctors won't check for anything else. Help

I am a 27 year old single female with an 8 year old daughter. I work, go to school, and have an internship. I was officially diagnosed in January 2013, though the episode began on Thanksgiving Day 2012. I woke up with my left eye completely turned out, with no ability to control it. I had to close it/cover it to see straight and ended up wearing an eye patch and feeling ugly from November ...

 Post subject: An embarrassing and desperate dump of emotion - (warning)
PostPosted: Fri Apr 19, 2013 8:27 pm 
I am at this moment feeling utterly alone. I stumbled a few times going to use the bathroom and I had to ask for my son's help to get back onto the couch that I've hardly moved from for two months. I am 34. I got an MRI on Tuesday. I'm having constant suicidal thoughts, but I have no intentions harming myself. I love my kid. I am just too overwhelmed and more alone than ...

PostPosted: Thu Apr 18, 2013 3:08 pm 
Hello everyone,

I've just joined as I was recommended by a man I met today at the place where I get treatment for my MS.
I don't really know where to start because I've now had MS for 10 years and I've gone on a LONG journey of trying to find out how to get better. I got my first proper symptoms when I woke up on Valentine's day 2004 at the age of 13 ...

I hope it's ok that I post here.
I frequent forums and have considered coming here for a while but like a new kid in school you have to start the process of "meeting" people all over again.
I can be shy....

I do not have MS.
I'm a married momma of 2 girls 12 and 7 I just recently started working after being a SAHM for 8 years as a leasing agent, and I ...

Hi folks. I've been fighting with myself in coming here. I think a part of me thinks this is all a bad dream and I'm going to wake up good as new and if I fail to give this any steam, it will just go away. (Can't blame a gal for tryin'!)

So the about me bit:

I'm a 33 married mother of eight year old twins. I was diagnosed with MS in Sept of ...

Hi everyone,

My name's Lee, I'm 30 years old and for the last year and half or so I've been having severe Erectile Dysfunction. Even with the use of Viagra its difficult to stay hard enough for sex. I have not been diagnosed with MS nor has my doctors brought it up but after extensive google research I believe it's something I should ask my doctors about.

Besides my severe ED and lack of sex ...
