Hi Greeneyes

Welcome to the group. I haven't been here that long but I love it. This is a great group. Lots of laughs and fun.

Hello, I just found this place from searing for more information. I have not been diagnosed as of yet, but today my doc had used the words "clinical probablility" when refering to my current health.

On thursday night at 4 am, i woke up unable to move my right arm, right leg, and tingling in my face on the right side. Went to the doctor later on that day after regaining use of my arm and leg (both still are tingly, and hard to use right hand, please forgive any typing errors) He sent me to get an MRI. The MRI came back with some "unspecified anommolies" and they scheduled me for a Neuro visit. Today after doing some more test and looks at the MRI, he said that I am showings signs of MS. Two years ago i was told by my GP that i had a pinched nerve in my left leg. well the Neuro said that I was misdiagnosed due to some simptoms of a pinched nerve that were not present with the GP (such as pain)

Sorry for the rant, kind of confused and a little scared at the moment. I am 26 with a 2 year old daughter, I am not sure if im ready to deal with something this big. I have alwase been very healthy. I have never even had strep throat or an ear ache. This seems to be a good place for me to get more support outside the family. My mother is a nurse and has worked in several MS support places, thank god for that one.

anyway. Hello, and I will probably be asking alot of questions.

Thanks for letting me steam a bit hehe

Hi, Noahma! Welcome to NeuroTalk!

I'm the most normal one here, so beware!

We actually know what you're talking about here, so no one will accuse you of being nuts. The good news is, we've all been living out life as best we can and it ain't all bad.

WELCOME NOAHMA!! Nice to meet you. Join in anywhere..

Hi Noahma

Welcome to the group. Ask away, we are always willing to offer info.

If you can define normal, then maybe Cindy (AMN) is the most normal one here. But I doubt it.

thank you for the warm welcome. Im in a bit better mood today. With very loving family. I think I can beat about anything. This is not going to slow me down, well not going to stop me.

hey! AMN isn't normal well, you all can decide for yourselves.

i'm new too.
my name is Judy. i've been over at MSW but will talk a leap over here.
originally dx'd RRMS in '03. now i'm SPMS. i've been on copaxone.
