I was diagnosed with MS about 3 1/2 years ago. I have. so far, not suffered any major issues. The problem I have is everytime something happens (and I mean anything - I stumble on the stairs, I forget something, etc.,) I slightly panic and think to myslef "this may be the start of an episode! It hasn;t been yet but it's really getting me down. My family doctor has prescribed some mind altering drugs to aid with depressive behaiour/thoughts, I have a good counsellor and most of all, I have a very supportive wife. I only know one other person with MS and not really well enough to talk to her about it so I was wondering if anyone out there had any similar (or completely different) experiences that they would be willing to share so at least I know I am not alone!!
