Hello from Nebraska

Hello. My name is Heather. I was diagnosed in 2019 after years of being treated like I was just drug seeking. I have had symptoms since 2007, but I always thought it was just stress. I am here to feel a little less alone on this horrible rollercoaster we call MS. I would love to make some friends....

Dancing with My Shadow



Multiple sclerosis is...
waking up one day walking with ease,
and the next, your legs refuse to follow.
It’s going to bed in pain
after waking with hope.
It’s living in a body
that no longer always listens
and learning to love it anyway.
It’s a battle the mirror doesn’t show,
but your body feels i...

Good morning my MS peeps. First time here. I was wondering how often do you switch DMTs? I was diagnosed in 2019 but it all start in 2004. I am on my 4th different medication. Started with Aubagio, then Kisempta, Ocrevus now Zeposia. Seems like they work for about a year then, I have to change. Anyone else like that? .

Has anyone else dealt with optic neuritis, and has it ever effected both eyes? I've only ever had it in my left eye but the last few days my right eye has been sore and the colors are washed out.
