Default Coming out from behind the bushes!

Hi Sally, I used to be a member on OBT (I was Teddy1) and your nice welcoming message encouraged me to stop lurking here and come out into the open!

A little about me - I am now in the Land of Confusion. I was diagnosed with PPMS in October last year despite only one brain lesion and one "suspicious patch on my cervical spine" on MRI and a negative LP, and had the diagnosis rescinded earlier this year. Apparently I am now suffering from "a neurological condition of unknown etiology". Fancy talk for "we don't know what's wrong with you".

I need a wheelchair or a scooter to go any distance and as of Thursday last week, am struggling to even heave myself around the house which is very scary for me. Not so much fun and I have an appointment this afternoon with the Dreaded Neurologist who will, I'm sure, shake his head and tell me yet again I'm a mystery. But - I have a lovely husband and a gorgeous seven year old daughter who keep me cheery and do so much for me around the house.

Thanks for encouraging me to come out and play!

Teddy
