How old are you? Does anyone else in your family have MS?

I can say "just relax" but I know that's not possible. Keep us informed as to how your Neuro visit went. I hope you have a good doctor!

Gosh, there are lots. MS symptoms vary so much between people. I know Lyme Disease is very similar. So is Devics.

I hope Dejibo will come on soon.....she is the best at explaining all this. Here is a link to the MS forum here. http://neurotalk.psychcentral.com/forum17.html Just reading all the different threads is a big help. Sort of familiarizes you with the different aspects of MS and how it affects each of us differently.

Cool new to forum
Hi My name is Tracey and I am new to this forum. Not new to MS, I was diagnosed in Augusgt 1997. I have RRMS and just retired from working 2 years ago because of MS from a job I was at for 22 years. I'm looking forward to meeting other people with MS and trying to find things to do with all of this free time I now have.

Thank you for the greeting Kitty. I was rereading my post and I guess I had an MS moment when I wrote it and proofread it. I am not able to edit my posts, but I realized there I made an error on my diaganosis date. I was diagnosed August of 1987 not 1998.

Sorry about that.
