Hi everyone!
I actually stumbled onto these forums due to a recent possible new diagnosis of RSD. There is so much information on a lot here! And the best part is thus far everyone I've had contact with is amazing! Now I guess my introduction to the MS part of the forums

I am 36 years old was diagnosed with MS a little over 15 years ago. It all started when I was called into my supervisors office and was told I should seek help for an alcohol problem I didn't even know I had. Hehe... Anyway long story short I had several employees around me who had turned me in for coming to work intoxicated because of my slurred speech and my klutzy nature. I told my boss I didn't drink blah blah.. two days later I guess I was slurring and stumbling... Boss called the police (which was not funny at the time of course but my gosh now! Hehe) the officer being so very kind took me aside and did a sobriety check and um I failed something miserable so he asked if I'd do a breathalyzer of course I agreed passed but then they assumed it was something else lol had to do a blood test ugh and couldn't go back to work until the results were back which sucked.. (I worked with children) once I was cleared I went to my regular doctor he sent me to others and a few MRIs later I found out I definitely wasn't drunk or drugged just MSed

I then had my last child five years later had complications during child birth lost a lot of blood hemoglobin went to a four, blood transfusions galore few years later after complaining of massive pain took a long time but finally found out it was a 20lb tumor growth on my ovary that of course was squishing the life out of everything inside me. Well shoot way to much information I am sure this has bored ya all to sleep I have to say though I am very excited I may actually have a diagnosis of what's been happening to my arm and leg with RSD but by the doctor putting it on the table it had led me to a very warm, friendly, informative forum that I wouldn't have ever found without the RSD possibility its a pleasure to talk to ya all

So what happened with the job after they found out you weren't drunk, just MSed? (LOL! - love that term)

Welcome! This is a great place for information and commraderie. I've also been stopped (mostly i supermarkets or once in a casino) because they thought I was drunk. Pretty funny now.
