Unhappy Omg No
My sister is being tested for MS

She has ON and has had a Brain MRI and the doctor is talking about a LP. I don't want her to have MS. She just can't have MS


I am the only one in my family that I'm aware of who has MS.......I just never saw this coming. I never, ever wanted to see a loved one end up having this disease.

Oh dear Snoopy - I'm so sorry.

She has you to lean on and she will benefit from your knowledge.

Scary time though.

Sorry to hear, Snoopy.

My sister was tested for MS too, and in the end was dx with Syringomyelia. It was odd because that is usually accompanied by Chiari, but she doesn't apparently have that.

MS is cruel, but not the worst one out there. You've had a (relatively) good go of the disease, over many years, so hopefully she will be the same (if it pans out that way).

Good luck to sis!

Cherie

Oh Snoopy..Nooooooooo!! I'm so sorry, but I'm glad she has you for a Sister.

I'll never forget the day my Daughter was also DX with MS...Now she worries about her Kids for the future, too.

I had a mild course for many years, before having to depend on a scooter and walker.....not until I was 63, and Julie is having the same mild course for now. She is on LDN only. get your Sister some....can't hurt!!

Sending Hugs to You and Sis.

Thank you so much everyone

My sister is doing better, her ON has resolved on it's own. She goes back to the eye doctor (not sure what kind she is seeing) and then to the neuro in Oct.

Sorry it took awhile for me to respond I have been dealing with my own health issues. Not sure what's going on right now but I have had bloodwork and will go in for some testing Mon. and Tues......WooHoo
