My Veins are now useless, what next?.

I need to have some Blood Samples taken before my next dose of Ocrevus on Nov 1st so, today a District Nurse visited me at home to take some blood and to change the bandages on my lower legs due to Ulcers and Blisters, or Cellulitus as it's known. When it came to taking the blood, it was completely ...

Am I freaking out over nothing

Way back when, in the days before the world changed. Before MS and COVID and all the bad things I've gone through in the last 4 years, I used to be quite active in the music scene as a photographer (not particularly good but I had fun and people supported me). I had friends whom I'd hang out with re...

There's no such things as strangers, just friends we haven't met yet!

Hey folks. My name is Steve and I'm about two weeks into my MS journey. I recently had an MRI which leads my doctor to believe I have it. "Demylenation" is a word that has been bandied about. I have my first appointment with the MS Clinic in June. I'm still done, but not out. I I want to live in a...

Hey folks! My name is Steve and my MS journey started almost 2 weeks ago. My head MRI showed significant demylenation and now I have an appointment booked with the MS Clinic. I'm sad, nervous and excited, but I know I'm not going through this alone.

Tysabri not working

Hi everyone, I’ve been on Tysabri since January, however I’ve had a new lesion in my recent scan and need to move to another treatment. I have rapidly evolving severe rrms. Has anyone had Tysabri and it’s not worked? If so what did you choose to switch to?

Walking - Not good at the best of times 🚶‍♀️🚶‍♀️🚶‍♀️

If ever I am out and walking, I try to go at a comfortable steady pace. Sometimes, my feet start to slack and I have to make sure I pick them up properly before I start to trip or basically just lose my footing. I get the feeling that passers by or followers are watching me and that can stick with m...
