Hi everyone, I hope you all doing okay & staying strong. I have alot going on & I feel like crap. I been stressing but Lord knows I try not to because it's not good for my health. My oldest son was in a bad car wreck on Ma 16, 2026 & it took a toll on me when I went to the hospital & seen him with that breathing tube in his mouth. Hearing the doctor saying he can't breath on his own devastated me. God heard my prayers & gave my son another chance. He showed him grace & mercy...my son had to have surgery/ in his hip 2 plates & 12 screws. He's going through Rehab Therapy now. I stayed at the hospital with him for bout 14 days & never left his side. The hospital then transported him to a inpatient Rehab Therapy Facility I stayed that day & went hope to rest. I having been feeling the best. I need to go see my Neurologist but my car a/c went out & I can't stand to be in the heat very long. It takes 1hr. 10 min. to my Neurologist. It's sad but I don't have anyone to take me. My oldest son towed out his car & my baby son drive trucks over the road/ he drive his car to Atlanta truck spot & leave it there while he work. I'm concerned & honestly worried about my health for 1 my vision is blurry going in & out/ the pain in my right eye is excruciating it was like that before I think it's optic neuritis. I think I have another UTI, and my memory done got worser, and my whole body especially my legs are aching so bad. It sucks having MS & you don't have a support system or anyone to help me when I'm down & out. I just pray God hears my prayers...Still I'm there for my mom with dementia, my son because he still needs my help...but I look around & nobody has me. One of my sister's have cancer & still I go by & check on her & call her but hopefully she will be fine she done with chemo, had surgery, and next step radiation. I tell God I see why you allowed me to go through the things I went through in life...even though I'm going through I'm still fighting & staying strong. If, nobody else don't got me I got me & I know God got me. He didn't bring me this far to leave me. I'm just going to stand still and wait on God like always...he might not come when I want but he's a on time God. He amazes me everytime!🙏🏿❤️🙌🏾

I am new to this forum and welcome any advice from people about how to help family understand. Difficult here with my adult child and feeling misunderstood and not able to help him through suffering but also feel like he may think I’m faking or drama queen. I am also concerned about how He is having to live with Ms too. It’s really hard. I’m usually a good communicator but we’re tangled up. I welcome any ideas people might share. Thank you.

I’m 73 years old. It has taken two years of testing and various other progressions to get diagnosed with MS. I now face more evaluation this coming week and am exhausted just to think of explaining my symptoms and frustration. Words of wisdom?

I think TBS knows I have MS. Today they've shown the two episodes of "Friends" that Christina Applegate and Selma Blair each guest-starred in. 😂

I'm new here, trying to start making those connections with MSers so I can get ahead of having an idea what this whole MS thing is about and how I can of course deal with, the changes, adjustments, treatment etc. My grandmother had MS before she passed and seeing myself today, I kind of think I just might have MS, not completely sure yet because what I think might be the symptoms could just be something normal I'm dealing with at the time, it goes away and sometimes I get to feel those twitches, fatigue, brain fog and sleepless nights a few times. Open to learning about people who have been on this journey and how their everyday living is handled it…. Look forward to meeting great minds and kind people

Has anyone tried a parasite cleanse? I’m looking at doing an Ivermectin and Mendezabole cleanse. I’ve read that even though there are no studies on taking them while on DMF is not recommended so my question would be…..how long would I have to stop taking my medication so I could do the cleanse? I think that parasites are liknked to a whole host of diseases.
