Hi Everyone

I was diagnosed in 2001. Like one of the other new members, I too was dx due to a headache. My neuro had an MRI done, called me to come to the hospital to discuss it and the next thing I knew, I was having a LP then the evoked response test. It was probably a good thing I didn't have time to think about the LP - I might have run from the hospital! Headaches continue to be my main symptom, but also have dizziness, numbness, severe fatigue, etc. I also have the CREST form of scleroderma. It makes things all the more interesting.
:roll:
Life is still good! My family and church are so supportive. I breed cats, so there's always a lap warmer with a purr massage available. I'm so glad to have found this site and hope to learn more about MS and treatments. I'm currently on Copaxone.

Hello and welcome from another Cop junkie.

You seem to be managing well. Congratulations. Stroke a cat for me, I don't have one of my own.

Hi Lesnia, Another fellow New Englander! Sorry you're here, but there's a lot on invalueable (sp?) info and great people here. I'm also on Copaxone (check out that Forum if you're new to Copaxone). And more importantly, I have two cats! They're mutts, though, nothing pure bred about them, but I still love them to peices. :lol: Good luck and welcome.
