PostPosted: Thu Mar 14, 2013 6:37 pm 
Hello all,
I joined this group to hopefully get more information from regular everyday people. I am not a hypochondriac, but the last few months have made me feel like maybe I am.

Most recently, I was diagnosed with uveitis in my right eye. Began October 2012. Initially a doctor treated me for pink eye as the flare up was really bad. But I continued to have distorted vision in my right eye, pain, inflammation, ...

Hi,

I'm new to the form, I guess I joined because I don't know what to do anymore.

My husband and I have been together for 16 years (high school sweethearts)... it hasn't been easy. During university I was diagnosed with crohn's disease (yes I know this is a MS form)... my health has been up and down, i'm in "remission" right now, but the meds have left me with no immune system and i'm ...

PostPosted: Tue Mar 12, 2013 4:01 am 
Hello, I am new to this forum. Thankful to Connie for letting me know about it. I am diagnosed with PPMS but a recent exacerbation this year has the docs confused and they may change it to PRMS..in any case I just started LDN and I am having some problems adjusting to it. I feel like I have so little time during the day to explore here because I feel guilty if the little energy ...

Just want to say hi to everyone. I am sure a world of knowledge is to be had here. My wife and I just found out that our son has been diagnosed with MS. I am grateful this board exists as we will certainly have questions on how to proceed. Want to thank everyone in advance for all the answers.

I just wanted to stop by and say Hello. I was just diagnosed "officialy" 2 weeks ago. I have been doing a lot of reading on here today and crying. It's nice to find people who understand,even when I don't. Who knows why you place a pot on to walk off and come back and swear you don't remember it. To sit down at the pc and can't remember why you are here or how ...

 Post subject: Droopy's going to UBC without banding but (probable ms???)
PostPosted: Wed Feb 27, 2013 6:07 pm 
First off, I am completely blown away my username was not taken, lol. My brother bought me a droopy tie 20 yrs ago as I am a chronic napper and always look and feel tired.

4 yrs ago I got the tingles, first in my left hand then the legs which started me down this path. Test after test and everything was inconclusive, eeg anomoly triggered the first mri, which my neuro didn't look at ...

PostPosted: Sun Feb 24, 2013 6:22 pm 
Hello,
This is my first time on a support site ever. I have had the label of MS for 30+ years and have had my share of ups and downs. Have been on Betaseron twice and Copaxone once. Both left me with severe Leukopenia (low white count) so I have not been a candidate for any of the DMDs
Have been secondary progressive for the past 4 years with minimal issues...I am very lucky and ...
