Does anyone else experience pain and throbbing in legs at night? It's only at night when I'm lying down and/ or ready for bed. It's different from my aches and pains and stiffness during the day. Was diagnosed in mid November so I'm still trying to navigate my way through all this nonsense 🙃😉🧠🫘( I call my lesions brain beans 🤷‍♀️😂)

I recently received very positive news from my neurologist regarding my diagnosis of Multiple Sclerosis. Based on my progress and stability, he has determined that I no longer need to continue medication at this time and is moving my status from Level 2 to Level 1. This is a very encouraging development and reflects the stability of my condition.While I am grateful and optimistic about this progress, I would be lying if I said I don’t occasionally have some “what if” thoughts. That said, I trust the medical guidance I’ve received and understand that this decision was made after careful evaluation of my health and long-term stability. Overall, I am very thankful for the positive direction things are moving!

I’m so frustrated. I feel like I go on apps and I try to reach out to many different places to see if I can find help or support and I feel like I’m just hitting a wall over and over again I’m getting to the point where I feel like I’m gonna take things in to my own hands and just end it all because I really think people think that I lying when I say, I can’t find help

Family accusing me of lying about MS

I try to explain my MS stuff to my family, but because of ALL the symtoms they think I'm a hypochondriac. They couldn't care less either way. And refuse to even listen to me. Or look at the paperwork I have made for them. I'm really struggling right now and had to move back home because I haven't f...

I'm paranoid people think I'm lying!

Sometimes I think people think that I'm lying, because my MS brain reacts weirdly to things. It's like as I'm trying to find words and remember things, it looks like I'm making stuff up! Anyone else get that? In our latest edition of Multiple Shenanigans (a podcast about the funny side of MS) we've...
