What do I do if I can't afford to keep getting MRIs and everything and they diagnosed me with possible Ms a year ago but I can't afford to get more tests done and I'm having a lot of side effects

You never know how much you can take and what you're capable of when you don't give up and you just keep getting up like it's normal you can achieve almost anything and you can get over almost anything we're all suffering here trust me you can do it

Dizzy today, gentlemen. I had a breakfast meeting this morning with a group of friends called ROMEO. That stands for Retired Old Men Eating Out. It was pleasant conversation about… Well, essentially about nothing. We vaguely discussed how we were feeling, how our wives or partners were doing and plans for our future. Some of us are afraid to actually make any plans that might cost money because their health is not so great. I am not like that! I make plans to keep myself happy with something to look forward to! I’m excited about two upcoming events! One is going with my wife (a woman I still call my beautiful bride after 30 years of marriage, to New York City to see my favorite band of all time in concert one last time. The two surviving original members of Rush are both 75 years old now and are doing one last tour. I’m seeing their next to last performance ever, as the next show after NYC is in their home town of Toronto. Then, a couple weeks after that, I’m going with that same amazing wife I mentioned on a cruise along the coast of Italy. We have the opportunity to attend a Sunday mass at The Vatican and hear a sermon by the new Pope. Now, my beautiful bride and I are both Jewish, but her best friend and her new husband (her second marriage is a huge upgrade from her first one! Are both catholic. They are both excited for the cruise but the opportunity to actually attend a Sunday mass in Vatican City and hear a sermon delivered by the leader of Catholism world wide is a once in a lifetime opportunity, even for me as a Jewish man. I’m excited to take our friends on their first cruise (its the first time leaving Indiana for the guy we are taking with us, and he is very excited and has been quite appreciative..

I just want to share my thoughts on ms.i have been told by many professionals that ms is treatable but not curable so I got my mindset not to worry about things but think about the future and I have I know the worst thing is to dwell on the final outcome and just keep going the best you can and embrace it.i know that I will end up bedridden or in a wheelchair so my advice is to stay strong and keep going until you find that you can not until then be positive and strong

Does anyone else get weird pain on the top of there head/scalp? It basically feels like I keep hitting my head on something and it’s completely bruised, hurts to the touch. But I haven’t hit my head. Even brushing my hair on those spots hurt. Anyone else?

I see a lot of comments about exercise. When I was first diagnosed I could not walk more than 5 feet. I was in great shape prior to my 7 week hospital stay. As time went on I got stronger by doing cardio with weights (no more than 10 pounds). I have access to a treadmill and now do a walk/run on the treadmill and it's actually my "pain medication of choice!" I do skip a day every 3 or 4 weeks to let my body recover and replenish. I also really watch my diet avoiding fats and salt which isn't good for you anyway. Id happily help any of my MS Sisters & Brothers with fitness. It gets into your mind and keeps the stress down. I work out first thing in the morning after I eat a high source of protein such as an egg or cottage cheese with fruit. After my workout I eat a serving of oatmeal with chia seeds and fruit. The chia seeds have a high source of protein and fiber which keeps you regular. Gimme a shout out!
