New to this
 
Good to find this place I have much needed, and hope I may help someone some day. I am rounding the corner of what feels to me as big changes in my life. I am 56 female with MS 20 +/- years. Starting my 3rd year on LTD. Since January I have been down with "it", sort of at home with "it", because of all the years of up and down, ins and outs of "it" (MS), I find myself poorly packed for this one. My suitcase of tricks (coffee, provigil, napping in car) are not working now. . I am on some home care now, which I am glad to have. I joined Netflcks, and I am hoping for some guidance from those who find themselves in a similar way, beached.

Hi
 
Well I guess I will jump in and say hi.

I was diagnosed with RRMS one year ago and have been on Rebif since. I have been looking for an answer to my symptoms since I was about 14. I'm 24 have a four year old daughter and two year old son. I also have a very supportive husband and a wonderful family who I would be lost without.

I was also diagnosed with POTS last June, and now they are in the process of trying to diagnose me with some type of myopathy most likely MG.

I get spells where I can't move or talk and can barely breath. As far as MS goes I have ON, cognitive issues, balance problems and left sided weakness. I have been through so many tests in the last two years I want to scream and will be glad when they finally decide they know what's wrong with me. Well besides the fact that I'm just weird :wink: But I've known that all along.:wink:

I have been on the web md support group for a while know and found this site for the MG support group. I have been on there for a couple weeks now and thought I would join in some conversations here.

I hope everyone is doing good today.

Hi my name is Mishi. I have been DX for 3 and half years we rmms. I was on rebif and had a good result but changed to avonex because of convenience and I am yet to see the results of that change. I was in major denial for the first couple of years but think I am starting to cope. I wanted to get into contact with others and hear their courageous stories to help me through the bad times. I really have no idea what this drug is doing to my brain except that it slows the progress of the illness. So if any one has any stories or would like to reply, please do so. Hope to hear from you.
