i am certainly having some good mood swings...trying to move into acceptance but some days are more acceptable than others!
it is nice that my dbl vision is getting a lot better--i even wore contacts for the first time...but still hating the avonex shots and tiredness and ms....
This is all STILL SO NEW to you. And here you are reaching out to me... how nice that you made that connection at work. This is why NT is so great for me, I haven't made a real personal connection yet. But even if I did, everyone here is STUCK WITH ME now!!!

I am sorry about your vision problems. I hope you Avonex shots go well. I was taking Beta, but am off it for now. I see the neuro tomorrow. Maybe he'll have an idea of what to do next. Good luck to you! You are in my thoughts and prayers!
