hello and welcome to NT.

i too understand your fears. i was diagnosed (dx'd) quickly; within 2 mos.
i began to have a gait problem. i went to my dr and my PE (physical exam) was abnormal. went to neuro...mri and lesions found. i was dx'd just on that.
that was in '03. i've been relatively stable, still walk mostly with a cane and drive. i was an RN and did have to give up my job.

the best advice i could give you right now is to take one thing and one day at a time. don't try to think into the future right now. no one knows what the future holds. like the others said...MS is so individual, everyone takes a different course.

try to bring your dh to your f/u dr appt. he'll be a 2nd set of ears and can ask Q's himself. get a copy of your mri and the report and start a medical file on yourself. it will come in handy down the road.

i would also recommend that you not discuss this at your job. the less people know the better. you don't even know yet.

we're here for you. keep us posted please.
