F/26, Newly Diagnosed 11-1-2013, on Gilenya
Posted: Thu Dec 19, 2013 7:05 pm
Hi! I've had my diagnosis for a month and a half; I've been on Gilenya for two weeks, and I'm female, happily married, and 26 years old.
I was reluctant to join a message board; I was afraid it would be just a lot of symptom comparing, like one person says "my legs are so weak I can hardly walk," and another person responds, "oh, that's nothing - my legs are so weak I can't even stand."
My goals are to keep up-to-date on Gilenya and talk with others who are experiencing "feelings" (I just started, haha), and especially to hear from spouses how their husband/wife's diagnosis and disease has affected them, as I'm concerned for my husband.
