I’m sorry to hear about your diagnosis. I have been in the very same position (though I hadn’t lost my voice) and it’s very scary. Have the doctors ruled out ALS and Transverse Myelitis? I would ask them about it if not. One thing about MS is that it affects us all differently. Depending on where our lesions are in our brain and spinal chord. What kind of symptoms have you been experiencing? What led them to discovering the MS?
@mkn9215 Sowwy about the diagnosis but if it comes out to be MS 'what should I expect?' Is invalid because Multiple Sclerosis affects people differently, no two cases (Symptoms) are alike. MS is a snowflake disease, I woke one morning 18 yrs ago with pin and needle sensation but I could still walk, take a shower, get dressed, go to work, perform my duties and take the bus home, I could still go to movies with my dad (Now deceased 2014). Until weeks later I was officially diagnosed with MS. Again it's a snowflake disease.
