He has sent me for physiotherapy, speech therapy and occupational therapy. He also took the time to a...

Feeling unusually optimistic!

I received a letter today from the Neurologist about my recent MRI and it seemed pretty good! There were NO new lesions and the old ones seemed to have gotten slightly smaller!! So I am pretty pleased with this and it made my usual very pessimistic self rethink! Who'dv thought?! ?

Disappearing symptoms

My symptoms has disappeared after a month and a half. It includes numbness and tingling in all extremities and cold feet. Will it come back? Am I being too optimistic or am I fighting a losing battle?

Bladder issue treatment

Has anyone had success with treatment for overactive bladder/urgency/incontinence? I have tried pelvic floor PT and two different medications that have not helped much. The next step is trying sacral neuromodulation (Medtronic), which I’m optimistic about but wondering if anyone here has tried this?...

It's going to be okay, right?

I like to think I'm optimistic over all but sometimes late at night the reality hits in a big wave. I hit mid-life and I went south hard. I lost my job, home, family and self respect in the melais that turned out to be MS I was told 13 years ago when I had optic neuritis that I did not have MS by h...

Can I ever "thrive" in the workplace? 🙃

Sorry for the vent post but I really wanted to get something off my chest. For a long time I struggled to find a stable job and was stuck working irregular hours in fast food restaurants and cafés. My financial situation was quite bad. I was estranged from family and I was looking into food banks a...
