Hi and welcome to neuro talk!

I'm glad things seem to be ok at work for now.

I like you was dx very quickly so I know what a worlwind of emotions that can be.

I had my 1st sxs Feb. 3rd of 2007 and was dx Feb.12th of 2007 confirmed by Neuro that day also.

Try to take time for yourself to process how you feel, do some research and come here to ask questions.

There is alot of info out there not all of it is good, the National MS Society is great, I've also found the American MS Society helpful. They tend to have accurate upto date info.

There are many of us here who are more than happy to share our experiences with others. Feel free to ask any thing and know you are not alone.

How old is your DD? Mine is 6, she has been a trooper even offers to help me with my shots . She has no fear of them, of course that could be because I'm the one who has to take them . Hearing her try to say Multiple Sclerosis is cute I've convinced her she can just say MS.

I also work full time and am blessed with a job who doesn't question when I need time off or any thing else. I was suddenly out for a full month last February when I was dx and they never even asked for a drs note.

I have found that I do feel much better now than I did then but it did take a little time to get back to "normal" some sxs took months to fully go away, so don't be discouraged if some sxs seem to stick around for a while.

Know that we are here if you need us to answer questions or just to hear you vent.

Good Luck!

Oh I looked at your post again 5 is a great age my DD was five when I was dx also.
