Hi, I'm Noid
 

One of the moderators pointed me in this direction. Long story short...

PRMS. Perhaps Devics, but for now doing rebif, and looking at chemo before doing Tysabri, if this isn't Devics. I'm also a photographer btw. :D

My symptoms are bi-lateral, which I hear is odd. I also get numb lungs and throat paralysis sometimes.

I love taking photographs, and was once an acrylic and oil artist, which I'm working very hard on gaining back. I have bi-lateral hand atrophy, so it is difficult but where there is a will, there is a way.

I lack faith in my neurologist atm, so am here looking for answers, by learning from others with MS, as well as other forms of "sclerosis" type illnesses.

Great to meet everyone. Hope this don't sound too much like whining... i'm not always negative lol.

Nice to meet you all. :o

Hi Noidy...Welcome, nice to meet you..:)

Come on in and join your new family..:hug:

:welcome_sign: Noid
Sorry you are here, but you sound like a great person. We are too, we just got crummy MS. A little whine is good, and we are great listeners too.

I hope to see ya around. And good for you for keeping up the the art one way or another.

:hug:

new and not new
 

I have just figured out that there is a separate forum for MS.

I do everything in the wrong order. I do read directions sometimes...!

Hi, Cyn! :Wave-Hello: Welcome to NeuroTalk!

:ROTFLMAO: :ROTFLMAO: :ROTFLMAO: :ROTFLMAO:

Howdy from Alabama!
 

huh?? :confused: ya mean it would have been better to say hi here first? :D
oh well, posted an intro on the main page, then found this, so Aarcyn, we on same raft!

Dejibo gave me link here, so here I am :hug: Prolly had MS since around...oh, the early 80's I recall early symptoms, but not until 97 did I start getting blood tests and other tests to see what the heck was going on! Didn't show a thing, so I started seeing a psychologist :cool: couple of months into that, had my first exacerbation--7/22/2000, and got the diagnosis in 8/2000, started on Beta in 11/2000 and been on it ever since!

I really wanted a break from it, but my neuro says "nuuuuuuuuu, nu way!" cause I haven't had a relapse and my disability reading went back to zero a couple of years ago! Hey!! I'm a grateful bunny here!

Hope to get in in the forum occasionally (though I don't do forums much any more lol) and offer encouragement and support where I can.

Hi, Vikki! :Wave-Hello: Welcome to the MS division of NeuroTalk!


I welcomed you in the general welcome area, and now I welcome you to our little band of MSrs. We also have a subforum called "The Stumble Inn" just for fun with others who "get it".

There are tons of other forums here and as you get familiar with the landscape, know that you are welcome to join in anywhere. :)

Welcome, Vikki..:) Nice to meet you.

Come on in and join the party. :hug:

I'm trying! I'm trying!!! but guess I have to have a certain number of posts before I can be a true MS party person! :D

thanks for the welcome, ladies :hug:
