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..

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...

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!!

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..
