New to shift.ms

Hi everyone! I’ve had MS for a long time (relapses started in 2011 and was officially diagnosed in May 2012) but I’ve literally only just joined here! I’m glad to be able to make connections with others who ‘get it!’ Enjoy your evening and take care of yourselves. Jen xxx

I’ve just had to have a conversation with British Gas over the phone and I got so stressed as I had to navigate wh...

World MS day

This is something I posted on my blog today. Normally I ignore my MS and concentrate on wildlife and gardening, but today I was tempted to share a little. Today is World Multiple Sclerosis Day. There is always a day for something or other and most of them pass us by unremarked. Unfortunately, rather...
