Thanks Mariel!

I had heard of a few people having their MS diagnoses taken away from them, but I figured it was rare.

When it happened to me, it felt like the world and everything I believed in came crashing down. It was awful! I talked it over with my PCP. He was the only one who said, "until someone can prove to me that you don't have MS, I believe that you do." That was like being thrown a lifeline.

It got better after awhile. I knew in my mind what I had. I still had my tremors, numbness and tingling, trouble swallowing and holding my urine, and my arm and leg weakness. While I was on TY for two years, my tremors and weakness improved. Didn't go away, but there was noticeable improvement.
