Sheena-

5 yrs of tests and they still aren't sure if I have ms or not. I had an MRI for migraines and they found about a dozen lesions.

I expected the doc to say my head was fine, it was just headaches. After that, they told me I might have so many diseases it about made me crazy. A year later, I was diagnosed with 2 serious disorders within a week of one another - C spine problems and a syrinx in my T spine.

I felt just like you do now. Unfixable, untreatable, and like I could be a vegetable at any second.

All those things are still true of my physical body. My mind has figured out a way to adjust to that and this ms limbo. I'm okay.

The people here have been a blessing in getting me to that point.


I hope we can help you through this. These folks know so much, so please ask anything. Just vent when you need to. Trust me, you can say what you need to say, it's okay.

It's okay not to be okay.
