I was dx with MS and cancer, 6 months apart. In the meantime, I somehow got to thinking it was a good time to start my family, so I was pregnant, anemic, had gestational diabetes, had MS . . . and they couldn't operate on the cancer till after the baby was born. That was 16 yrs ago, and ancient history.

I am sorry for what you are going through right now, and I know how unfair it must seem. I spent a long time in counselling to get through those emotions, and if you can afford it, I would highly recommend it. A psychiatrist is the best option, since they are also fully trained medical doctors (they understand the MS and cancer effects), as well as the emotional stress you are probably under.

Get some support through this time.
