Hi i am newly diagnosed & have just joined this group.

I am having double vision . Booked in to an experienced optician next week. I have read in various formats that certain specific lenses can help with double vision. I mainly get this at night and when I am tired. Does anyone have any suggestions , I would be very grateful.

Then it subsided but I ended up in a wheelchair. I had a 6 month old infant. I found my wonderful Neurologist that got me finally afte...

Does anyone experience this?

I’m newly diagnosed with RRMS so still don’t know what’s ‘normal’. I know everyone’s different but I’ve been experiencing tingling /internal tremors on and off. Normally when I wake up, I feel totally fine but as the day progresses I’m more aware of my legs buzzing - this becomes even more obvious ...

Is this depression???

The past few weeks have brought about a lot of emotional ups and downs. Not sure if it's full on depression, but most days I feel unmotivated, my energy is low, I want to isolate and not be bothered by others. Some days I can pinpoint what I'm feeling, others days I'm all over the place with my feel...

Is this MS hug?

Hi, Looking for some advice really. I have had MS for 8 years now and medics believe (after months of decline and no remission) that I have started on the path of secondary progressive. Since last summer, I became a full time wheelchair user due to a severe relapse leaving my left leg paralysed. Si...

New to this!

Good evening, everybody! So I’m brand new to MS. I was diagnosed in November 2022. I now feel that one of the best ways of treating myself is to advocate for myself and those with MS. I am always willing to listen to new ideas so if you have any for me, by all means share.

I feel like this is the one thing you dont say to MS patients...

My best friend that I've known for 5 years has never been anything but supportive of me, asked if I'd ever thought if I'm a hypochondriac.... 😔 In credibly insensitive and discouraging. I spent the last 7 years of my diagnosis being in denial of my pain and symptoms. But after 2 relapses in 2021 th...
