I would not consider myself to be very symptomatic.

I was wondering what questions should I be asking my doctor.

I haven't been sick in my life so a lifelong illness is a new experience to me.

I train in a town near where I live in Central Maine.
Shotokan with JJJ and Judo blended in.
I have only been training about 1 year.
Yellow Belt working on blue.

Next time I am at the Doc's I am going to request copies of all my records and then keep them current. Does anyone use some sort of portable record? If so, what do you recommend? Or, is it even ...

Hello all, I just wanted to introduce myself and say hello. I am 39. I was diagnosed a couple weeks ago. I am still not totally sure on the type of MS and am still exploring treatment options.
