My story
Hello, I’m new to all this.. mine all started when I was 9 at first they thought it was a tumour but I was admitted to hospital and had loads of medication, got out 4 days later and I was fine.. I was then diagnosed when I was 12 with Multiple Sclerosis, I didn’t have a relapse until a few months back and I am now 19, I only went on medication when I was 16.. I’ve been wanting to speak to people with ms who is similar age to me and found out about this by a doctor.. please feel free to comment your story!!
@tatiana_de_la_haye I wasn’t as young as you but I was 21 when I was diagnosed. I don’t know about you but I found it really hard to deal with someone so life changing at such an early age. I felt like the life I’d always wanted was over. It took me many years to come to terms with it and actually tell people. I am no 33, happily married to my soul mate who loves me for me and doesn’t care about my disability. We have been blessed with two amazing children. MS doesn’t define you which I thought it’s just a part of who you are. Hope you are keeping well xxx
@lpoollou2 I’ve sent you a request so we can message, I found it hard at 12 it didn’t really hit me till I was about 15 in year 10 I started having horrible anxiety attacks and just couldn’t cope being around lots of people so I ended up leaving, I missed all of year 11 of secondary, haven’t been to college or anything cause just come out of my anxiety. My ms causes me a lot of pain, everyday is a struggle since my relapse, I hope you are well xxx
