Newbie hello

Hi everyone. I've had M.E. since 2001, but after new symptoms this year the GP thinks it could be M.S. instead after all. Sadly, the current waiting list here for non-emergency neurology appts is over a year (!), so it'll be June 2024 before I see anyone, but that's OK - I'm trying to be glad it's ...

Hi, I'm a newbie 👋

Just thought I'd introduce myself, I've not been officially diagnosed yet, the UK NHS has a long waiting period to see a neurologist but as the symptoms I currently have and more keep popping up MS is being looked at as what is happening. I got niggling brain freeze type chronic headache, followed b...

Hi all! I'm a 33yr old Mom of two who was diagnosed with rrms almost 4 yrs ago now. I've been through and am allergic to serval medications. In reality I haven't been on anything solid for almost 2years. I'm starting Mavenclad before the end of this month. Wish me luck.
