I think I have an irrational fear of getting sick. I’m on kesimpta and feel like I am afraid to socialize or shop or anything. I know I’m immunocompromised and wonder if I would live more if I just stopped taking it. Anyone else question that?

I just want to share my thoughts on ms.i have been told by many professionals that ms is treatable but not curable so I got my mindset not to worry about things but think about the future and I have I know the worst thing is to dwell on the final outcome and just keep going the best you can and embrace it.i know that I will end up bedridden or in a wheelchair so my advice is to stay strong and keep going until you find that you can not until then be positive and strong

Does anyone have trouble sleeping? A couple months ago I started to get less and less sleep, id fall asleep for maybe 15 minutes and then be awake all night, get maybe 2 hours in the morning then be up all day. I stopped taking my 30mg Adderall thinking that was the problem but it didnt change anything except I was way more tired.

In this season of thankfulness, good love, faith, & hope I have to be positive. I was diagnosed 7 almost 8 yrs ago. If I think back I started to show signs in my 30’s & I am now days from being 57. I am so thankful I did not have to go through the horror stories of gettin a diagnosis. It literally took me 3/4 weeks. I have never gotten angry with the world or given up. I was brought back to my faith. In some ways having PPMS has been a blessing. Don’t get me wrong MS is not a blessing but being able to teach people about it is. I wish everyone a very merry Christmas.
