I literally just got diagnosed. Im overwhelmed, scared, and still waiting for some results. My body hurts and the spinal tap didnt help that pain any. Im feeling lost....

Hi and welcome I was scared and lost at first because I didn’t know anything about ms till my neurologist told me a little about ms and then my ms nurse explained in more depth about it and said this is a new me so learn the new me and everything will be fine and 6 years later I have learnt that I can’t do some of the things I used to anymore
Hi I totally understand where you are coming from I was diagnosed end of last year and I felt the same. If you are struggling with your back after lumbar puncture ask to see a physiotherapist they helped me. Give your self time to get your head around it and just take one day at a time and take the little wins
