Nervous

Recently diagnosed and everyone I tell looks at me like I’ve received a death sentence so, I stopped mentioning it. Didn’t mention to many people but the look and gasp they give makes me feel like I’m missing something. I get dizzy from time to time and have toe and finger tingles. Oh, I also walk ...

Hello, I'm so nervous staring this conversation but have so many questions right now. My undiagnosed daughter who is 31yrs old has had a numb arm for nearly three months and in the end the neurology dept in our local hospital agreed to an MRI scan which showed an inflammation on the top of her spina...

So I was on Copaxone for like 3 years it was working great. Then all of a sudden my relapses were happening more often. Just moved to Chicago 7 months ago and have now established care here. My Neurologist is wanting to start me on Kesimpta. Has anyone ever been on it? If so what were some side affects? Also side note I don't have a Pancreas so I am extremely nervous about trying new medications.

I have been struggling with my depression symptoms the last few months- the symptoms are getting more intrusive in my daily life and effecting my roles as a wife and a Mom. I have a counseling psychiatric appt later this week and I am so nervous for what she may say she thinks I may need. I don’t want to have to be on an antidepressant. There are so many blessings in life, but my viewpoint has been so dim these days though and I know I need help.
