Health

Just a random question. Does anybody suffer from paper-thin skin that even with the slightest touch seems to peel away? I don't know if this is Multiple Sclerosis related or not. However, it's problematic. My legs have a lot of scarring all over them.

I've been a nurse for about 10yrs, worked mostly nights. Since being diagnosed last December I have not worked. I took my first dose of Mavenclad awaiting the 2nd round in the next couple weeks. I want to return to work but I dont know if I trust my body and afraid I may send myself in a relapse. I want to transition to something less toxic on my mental/physical health. I DONT KNOW WHAT TO DO.

I'm so tired of feeling like I'm not good enough, worthless, alone. I'm afraid that I'll be alone for the rest of my life. Ik that if I'm alone when my mom passes that I won't be able to stop my suicidal ideation from taking over. I have borderline personality disorder and my worst fear is being alone not having anyone to help me walk through the pain that my mom passing will bring. This has been on my mind so much lately. I am honestly afraid of what will happen... I fight with my mental health the most. Besides the fatigue my depression, my borderline personality disorder and suicidal ideation is something I have always had a hard time with. Any feedback would be great.

I know it's time to quit working and focus on my health, however, no one understands and thinks I'm giving up. I dont feel as though that I have a good support from my partner or family. How do I do this alone?

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 🥰.

Ill health retirement

I've been having issues with my employer since march now. It was agreed that I should apply for ill health retirement which I did. But my employer hasn't paid my GP for my medical records to be sent on to the private occupation health company. 4 times now I've emailed them to say my report is still ...

I’m reading the health comments and how is that skunk weed marijuana are supposedly coming from Mexico in every country around the world I don’t believe that Mexico was shipping it to every country around the world is this government I’m just curious cause it seems like that would be a government thing but then why them that would be horribly shameful and how does some countries have it illegal although it’s being shipped in is that fair to punish the people for what they get? I don’t believe it is it should be legal around the world if they’re shipping it around the world shouldn’t it? Especially when it’s a lot of people with health problems using it diabetes, a lot of autoimmune disorders lotta stomach problems and it’s kind of weird how it’s so helpful and yet the government uses it to punish people it makes no sense?
