Hello @candice_adele_stone, great to meet such a young, feisty warrior. My goodness, what you’ve been through since childhood......I can’t tell from your profile where you are. Sounds like you should be put in front of a highly renowned neurologist, for an expert opinion. There are some young people like you who use this site. Use the map function on here to see if there is anyone close to your area. Do you get lots of support from your family? It must have been tough for them too. Even with MS, it’s possible to live a full life. In our case, we often need to approach things a bit differently, but you are still entitled to the same things your friends have, or might have in the future. Do you keep a journal, or log about your experience? Lots of people on here write blogs, or have their own sites, but it would be great to read one from a young persons perspective. I hope you find support on this site, I admire your courage and you might not feel like it, but I can tell you have a feisty spirit, so keep going! Xx
