Looking for
something specific?

Hi, this term has been used repeatedly with me over the years, but the meaning thereof in practical terms escapes me. I would love if anyone can advise how they "paced" themselves in their MS recoveries, whether it's post a relapse, an injury, treatment, anything whatsoever... I am aware of the old...

A bloke is on the toilet having a poo. Mid-wipe, he feels a sneeze coming. His body gives him plenty of warning. Any sensible person would stop. Not this hero. He decides he can finish wiping and sneeze at the same time. The outcome was apparently so horrific that the bathroom mirror immediately unf...

Hello everyone ☺️ I’m looking for advice really! My wedding is in August and it’s only small 1-5pm but socialising is very tiring for me and I’m wondering if people have tips on how to pace successfully through events? I’ll be resting as much as possible on the run up but the day itself seems overwh...

Not because I think people shouldn't talk about the hard stuff. They absolutely should. But because I think we're missing balance. When you're newly diagnosed, you're often scared and searching for hope. Instead, it's easy to find an endless stream of posts about what MS has taken away. What if ther...

Classic edition. Plenty of character. Some parts rattle but that’s how you know it’s authentic. 💀 High mileage. Mostly motorway miles through Baghdad with the dashboard lit up like a Christmas tree and absolutely nobody qualified to fix it. 12 previous owners. One was James Bond Which explains the ...

Snow White stumbled across a cottage containing seven dwarfs. Not the Disney ones. These were the MS dwarfs, where every character comes with a neurologist and a leaflet. 😴 Sleepy slept 10 hours and woke up absolutely shattered. “What did you do yesterday?” “Nothing.” “Today?” “Also looking ...

Before my MS diagnosis I was very active from playing football competitively, running and lots of other hobbies such as fine art etc I felt I lost a lot of my hobbies because of my diagnosis and relapses I had- so I was curious if anyone else has found other pastimes that are less demanding and hel...

Right, buckle up for this one… We’ve all heard the question: Who wins in a fight, 100 men or 1 gorilla? People have spent an alarming amount of time debating this. But I think we’ve made a fundamental mistake. Why are we sending 100 random men? Send 95 experienced zookeepers and 5 rodeo clowns...

Mission: GET TO THE 6:10 DOCTOR’S APPOINTMENT Somehow, against all known laws of the NHS, I have secured a doctor’s appointment for 6:10pm. This is not a drill. I’ve had a chest infection hanging around like an unwanted house guest, and because I’m on a DMT, apparently we should probably investig...

I’m relatively new to this whole MS thing having gotten recently diagnosed and I haven’t had enough time to process this given that I’ve been distracting myself with work so much. To my detriment at times. My diagnosis has been a bit weird and quite dramatic but I’ll just vent here and hopefully s...
