Everything went great this time around. Every side effect was wayyyyy wayyyyyyyyy less intense lol.

I got set up with copaxone three times a week and am just waiting for it to get here.

I am meeting with a physical therapist/chiropractor this Tuesday to assess and start rehabbing (my leg) along with things like acupuncture, massage therapy, etc.

Once that is hatched out I will get blood work done and check all my levels to asses what I need to change in my diet or intake of vitamins.

Then on April 4th I have an appointment with an MS specialist clinic to ensure I am on the right path or to change to the right path. This place took almost 2 months to get an appointment, so I am sure it is a very proper place to be.

Should be fun ! haha

Finally got my medication after a bunch of bs. I am starting my first shot of copaxone today.

Then this Tuesday I am going in for blood work.

I have tightened my diet up even more by cutting most of my sugars and wheat out. I still cheat a little but I need to enjoy eating when I want to. I got a whole case of snapper through my work to go along with the organic chicken I have there. I eat a lot of fruit and veggies throughout my day as well.

I am almost doing everything possible within my power to fight back and then life can return to "normal"... Its just a new definition of normal now.

Hi 'Youarethecure'!
I found your post very interesting - I just joined the forum today... I realized that you posted back in February, but I was diagnosed last year when I was 24, but I had my first major attack when I was 14 in my eyes - I have felt very good over the last decade and I think that is because I've been super positive and enjoying life to the fullest as well. I'm very happy to hear your positivity as well, and I hope you are still feeling good! I don't know how the forum works just yet ha, so I won't write too much unless there is a reply!

Cheers from Canada,
Lisa

Thank you!!

I am doing very well. I got to 110 percent and felt better than I have in my life. Symptoms cropped up a couple times though, right now dealing with some things but it is what it is. I am still happy and joyful. Just waiting for everything to return back to normal. Another week or two I hope to be feeling normal again.
