I’ve been dealing with an unbearable amount of anxiety and stress lately because of my new diagnosis and the medications. Some days I feel hopeful about my future and believe I can get through this but then I’m slapped with an unexpected panic attacks that is usually caused by new symptoms or fear of the unknown (my future). I don’t know how to cope with it. I’m trying everything possible: leaning onto my faith, venting, deep breathing, listening to music, etc. but nothing’s working. I’m really trying to remain hopeful but some times it can be so hard and unbearable. I’m only 17. Why does this have to happen to me at such a young age?

Walk by FAITH not by sight🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽

Through all the pain, confusion and worry I realized I serve a MIGHTY good God and he has NEVER left my side and he NEVER will. At the end of the day God has the last say so its nothing I can do is pray and believe.

I’m curious, are there any Catholic Christians here? My faith in God has been one of the most important sources of strength for me as I face the challenges of living with MS. I’m wondering if anyone else has used their faith to navigate their journey with MS, and if so, how has it helped you? 💞

Hello everyone 😊. A little about myself. I was diagnosed with MS (after experiencing a few different symptoms (🤔maybe in a period of 3 months or so 🤷🏼‍♀️). This happened November 2008 at the age of 30. After being discharged from the hospital, I went to see a neurologist who started me on daily injections. I don’t recall too much, however I remember the Dr telling me newly diagnosed patients will have a relapse in about 2 years. I was on injections (which injections 🤷🏼‍♀️) less than a year (due to insurance). About 2-3 years later, I again have insurance. I recall hearing anything you take or do to yourself can trigger your “MS”. So because of that, I refused to be back on meds/injections. My way of thinking (maybe not the healthiest) was “It’s been close to 4 years and I haven’t had a relapse or suffered from it. Fast forward ➡️, almost 16 years later I have never experienced anything to do with MS since the time I was diagnosed. I’ve doubted (and still do) of my diagnostic was correct. A few years ago I had some tests done on me and according to Dr- I still show cloudy patches bla bla bla. I’m very thankful and blessed with myself but I’ve also wished and prayed MS didn’t exist. I wish everyone the best, NEVER lose hope or faith and always be thankful you don’t have it worse 🥰.

Lost all faith

Visit with the Neurologist was extremely strained. She says while those MULTIPLE large white spots on the MRI have not changed in a year, she doesnt believe I have MS. I did get emotional-not that I want to be diagnosed with yet another auto immmune assasingator, but I have no answers. Its been t...

I'm suppose to start Mavenclad this weekend, what can I expect in terms of side effects, risk for infection and overall performance of this drug. I'm kinda faithfull/hopefully with a little sprinkle of fear of the unknown.

Dreams/Ambitions/Aspirations/Goals

I was just wondering if MS has hindered anyone from pursuing their dreams, their goals in life, their ambitions, their aspirations, or just made you rethink how you are going to get where you want to go. Or has it made you grab the bull by the horns and pursue your dreams vigorously? I have experien...
