My name is Keith and I too am a refugee/member of the other site. I'll still go there from time to time but I appreciate the opportunity to socialize a little (and laugh at our situations) with others that know where I'm coming in the MS respect. I was dx'd via craniotomy last year and the surgery is far worse than the disease let me tell ya.
My symptoms have been relatively mild so far. A little speech difficulty when I'm tired and a myriad of ever changing twitches and strange vision. Nothing that hurts too much, thank God. Fatigue has been the biggest issue so far. But I'm figuring out how to cope.
I take the bif (rebif) and have tolerated it ok I guess. I hate the stuff but I'm seeing no progression so - so far so good.
Thanks a bunch to all here at NT for being so hospitable with the rash of us newcomers here lately! Cheers!
