Hi to everybody here!

I've read a few threads on this board now and then over the years but never got around to joining.

I already belong to several MS message boards, and I've been on them for 5 or 6 years.

This place looks nice, and I hope to take part in some discussions here.

I was diagnosed with SPMS many years ago. I was on Avonex for 3 years but had to stop because I passed out and fell one night, a few hours after a routine Avonex shot. Now I'm not on anything, but Copaxone could be a possibility.

I look forward to visiting here! Happy 2007 to everyone!

Hello there. I'm SPMS too- but quite mild. If you're thinking about a new drug regime there's lots of info and personal experiences here to help you decide. All the best.

Chris, that's a good choice of a user name--REDHAIRANDTEMPER. Lets people know right away that they should watch their step! (Just joking!)

Chris, I'm in Tacoma. "The City of Destiny" is what it calls itself (I'm not sure why).

Hi Agate,

It's nice to see you here! This is a nice forum. I joined it a couple of years ago, then forgot I had joined. I came back and found I was already a member.

So I just started really posting a couple of months ago.

I read your bio in the golden years forum, and enjoyed it very much, even though I've read it before on other forums.

Thanks so much, Arron and ewizabeth.

People are probably thoroughly tired of reading my bio by now! I used to belong to one and only one MS board, and then it became two, then three. Now I'm afraid it's up to 5.

No way, I'm proud to know you with all of your accomplishments, I like reading about them, besides, we both like cats and flowers. Also, I think I belong to... let's see, from 5-7 MS boards. Yikes!
