nana and susan, nice to have you here! pull up a chair and chat.

I was at Braintalk a lot in the old days and knew a few Susans. Which one are you...LOL

It doesn't matter, just glad you're here. Don't forget to check out the TY sticky.

Welcome.

Hi Everyone, pleased to meet you all!
My chosen name is Sparkledust, and I am a 48 yr old female from Edinburgh, Scotland.
I was training to be a nurse in 1982 until I ended up in hospital myself with MS.
Sadly I haven't worked since.
I am still mobile and have RRMS/ query SSMS.
I have been on Rebif for 6 weeks and also began on LDN about the same time.
I have memory problems and chronic fatigue, and have had ON and sensory problems many times.
I have two teenage children and a cat and dog!
Looking forward to joining in the conversations!

Hiya Sparkle! welcome! pull up a chair, and grab your reading glasses. We are happy you found us.

Welcome, Sparkledust, pleased to meet you also.

I am Sally, and have been DX with MS for 32 years, with symptoms dating back to 1964. Yep! Long Time. The good news is, I was in remission for 18 of those years. I am now SPMS, can still walk, but use a scooter around the house and for outside distances. I walk as often as I can, so I won't lose the ability.

I am on LDN (for 3.5 yrs) to steady my MS and Paxil for Anxiety. I have used Avonex and the Copaxone in the past.

Tell us about yourself and ask any questions you want. We are here to support you in your fight and your coping with MS. We might even have some fun, while you're here.

Best Wishes,[/QUOTE]
