Memory, Brain Lesions and Guilt

I was diagnosed on January 6, 2020. I have a heavy disease burden with almost all of my lesions in my brain. I started taking Tecfidera shortly after. Every MRI I have had except one showed new brain lesions. So now I'm on Ocrevus. My memory has progressively become worse. I forget words, names, an...

Frustrated

Hi everyone. I have RRMS but I believe I might be progressing to different type. This disease can be so frustrating at times. I can't get an appointment with my neuro until next month and my symptoms are increasing. I don't currently take a DMT - I had a bad reaction to Copaxone and haven't wanted ...

Pregnancy and MS

im 35 and had pretty stable MS since I started Ocrevus in 2018 now thinking about getting pregnant. Does this sound like a good idea I know there is a possibility of relapsing after having the baby I want to hear experiences from women that had their children already diagnosed with MS

Relapse 😞

Unfortunately I am having my first relapse in 2.5 years and I am still on tysabri (going into ocrevus in a few weeks) I feel angry as I was kind of in denial as everything was going to so great. My father passed away in May and I thought since I didn’t have a relapse then I’d be safe but here it is...

Disclosing in a new job

Hey all, I'm fairly newly diagnosed (May 2023 I think), I started a new job a few weeks ago and I didn't tick the disabled box on my application for a few reasons: 1. I wanted to get the job on my own merit. 2. I didn't have many symptoms and was hoping it would stay that way for a while. However,...
