This is my 1st post. I'm in the UK, my name is Deborah and I was dx with RRMS in Feb 2013 following 6 months of having pain and numbness in the upper left side of my body...an MRI and lumber puncture were used to diagnose me. I worked as a surgical nurse back then, I'm able to still work full time and I'm a cancer nurse specialist today and know I'm extremely fortunate to be as well as I am. I've had one relapse in 2015, which lastsd for about 10 weeks, I had extreme fatigue and global spasms and pain. This year I have developed L'hermittes Sign bilaterally in my legs, very very very annoying when it happens. I have never used any drugs throughout, except paracetamol, we tried a few but the side effects I felt from them where too ghastly, they have offered me steroids for the L'hermittes, but I declined, to me its a nuisance, but I can live with it. They said it would settle in 6 weeks or so, but its been here since December last year...a very long 6 weeks! I do work and I love m job but I sacrifice a lot to be able to do that, I have a routine that keeps fatigue at bay for me - I live alone - I get home from work, have a shower, get in my pjs, have dinner and go to bed, having my legs out in front of me, is more comfortable for me than sitting, in fact I only use my sitting room if I have family or friends visiting! Its a lovely room too!! I have 2 grown children and a baby grandson, who is just gorgeous!! I keep my fatigue and pain to myself and I've learned to push through when needed and I deal with it mostly alone..you know the saying..you dont get MS until you get MS...and its so true, people are kind and have sympathy but essentially they clueless and I dont wanna waste their time and mine trying to get them to understand, I dont mean that so sound mean, its just how I see it. I think of MS as a travelling companion I didnt choose, no matter where I go its there, trying to butt in. Again, I know completely how fortunate I am with my MS, I have nursed people with PPMS and that SOB is nasty, mean, unrelenting and unforgiving... Just here to say hello...trying always to stay positive and move forward, even if its slowly.
