I use Correlle plates now. They're lighter, they dont break easily if you drop them, and spaghetti doesnt leak thru them like paper plates. And, you can put them in the microwave.
The good china is too heavy to carry once you put food on the plates.

Congratulations on finally making it out of Limboland. I'm sorry you landed on the uncharted territory of "your" MSville.

now that is not a good example to set for others, taking so long to be dx'd.

I "only" had about a year and a half of limbo, and when I got my diagnosis I wept with mixed emotions, one of which was relief. Sure was hard to explain.

That's just it. Those of us who have heard the words from the horse's mouth (so to speak) know exactly the mix of emotions involved. It is very hard to describe to someone who's never been through such a life-changing diagnosis.

Funny thing is I never really thought of myself being in limboland. And if having an excacerbation brought me one step closer I never wanted to have one. I was very comfortable being labled as clinically probable for the rest of my life. My husband was always sceptable, he wanted them to find a stroke. And my neuro was begining to wonder since I have been so stable all these years and the MRI the same. So for them I am glad it is finally settled. But I was fine with it last 1997. My neuro has always treated my 'condition' with the utmost respect. Routine MRIs, Avonex, yearly exams, everything she would have done with any other MS patient. So I was satisfied and really had no interest in being anything else if it came with another positive test or symptoms.

You are the conquering hero! When I was finally diagnosed after decades and decades of being told it was all in my head, I considered it a triumph of my will over all those medical “professionals” who were so quick to dismiss me. I seriously considered putting together a letter of some sort to send to some of my past doctors pointing out how obvious my symptoms were, and how dumb they were for missing the diagnosis. I didn’t, of course. I have more productive things on which to spend my time. Knowledge is power. Spread this power lavishly in all the corners of your life.
