I used to be like you too, working full time, raising kids, remodeling a house plus a zillion other things. Now I'm too tired to leave the house and even my shadow hurts.



I totally agree more funding should go toward finding a way to detect ms earlier. Current diagnostics are like something from the stone age.

Q to both Avanliew and Dixie - are you at least getting some help for your symptoms? I hope so.

To be perfectly honest. No. The medicines may dull some of the symptoms, but they are still there. I generally manage to get out of bed and catch a ride to work. After a few hours I can't handle anymore. I catch another ride back home. Then I spend two days in bed paying for it!
