MS Mommy

I recently decided to start telling people I have MS. I have been very private about my diagnosis since I was diagnosed about 3 years ago. I felt like a huge weight was lifted off my chest! My friends encouraged me to go further with sharing as a healing tool. I decided to create a blog about mother...

Embarrassing moments

I went out today with my wife and my bestie and I fell in the toilets. My wife had to come help me up. I couldn't get up. I have never been so embarrassed and mortified in my life.

I’m new to this site and I just want to say at the moment I feel that I have reach out to people who have MS

I was diagnosed with MS after telling my doctor for two years that there was something wrong with me. My doctor never took any notice of me until the end of 2019 when I finally got to see a neurologist and got a head scan . In February 2020 this year I was told I had MS. Since then I’ve been tryin...

Steroids - ok to take them at the moment?

I’m currently relapsing whilst on Ocrelizumab. How bad do my symptoms have to be to take the risk of having steroids now, and further reduce my immunity?

Hi all! I was diagnosed very recently with MS, on Feb. 26th 2020. Feb. 12th, 13th, 14th '20 I had a Methylprednisolone cure for 3 days, which didn't help me out of my relapse.

My hands were numb at times with pins and needles, head felt empty or weird - this had been preceded by months of vertigo, pain, overheating bouts through summer etc. ...
