This Is MS Multiple Sclerosis Knowledge & Support Community

It is starting to affect my speech now, I am starting to notice that its getting hard to pronounce words, slurred speech would be a good way to describe it, I’m glad that it has decided to hit my voice and not my arms or eyes because they still are working pretty good. The wheelchair I have is a manual one and I hope to keep it that way for a while, it’s just a monster inside me that feels like its eating me from the inside out..

14 years and counting...

maybe with all the talk about viruses we should be refered to a hematologist rather than a neurologist.

On bad days, my speech is accelerated. It comes out running so it is not clear either and others find it funny. They think I think very fast and speak very fast. I have to repeat my sentence slowly. It is not a big problem but I refuse to give lectures because of it...

same here carolew on bad days or when i'm tired it's worse, bad and good days are much less different to notice now but with certain things i can still notice.how are u doing with stuff?

my skin is crawling because of what i just read, how does a person with ms for 14 years not feel comfortable at a site for ms but i guess things have changed. opinions on anything are meant to be different and if what people say can affect your beliefs then they can't be very strong to begin with. i really don't know what to say but your evil isn't one of them!!

took ldn for 8 months..

wonder how Joyce is now she was the ldn spokes woman when i first started it. it would be great to hear from her now..

saw some girls on the news who were paralized in a car accident and had flown to china or somewhere that way for stem cell injections. she said there was quite a few ms'ers there. she will get more if she finds they help, she said that her feet felt warmer,thats got to be a good sign..
