Hi, I am unsure of how to put a post up or even if it is allowed. I was just wanting to know if there are any active social groups who meet up for a laugh and just talk about the stuff we have put up with having MS.

New to the Fourm. Was recently diagnosed with MS last September. I get to see a Neurologist in June. Dealing with Face numbness, blurred vision, muscle pain, vertigo, headaches and chronic fatigue as well. It's starting to interfere with my ability to walk. I work as a case worker for Family and Social Services so I often have a heavy work load but my MS is causing me to fall behind due to days I can't get out of bed. I could really use some support. I'm not very educated about MS but I'm learning. Any information and tips would be very helpful! TIA!!

social niceties

We have reached a stage where the pressure of social niceties and forcing a smile for those who have hurt us in the past or present has been erased from our moral structure just shut tude people who act smart or strong up . We no longer have anything to lose, other than our being, which is deterior...

Social media influencers like eddie abbew claiming ms can be cured by eating raw meat
