I've been dx'd for 6 years. The first couple years were the hardest emotionally. It doesn't necessarily get 'better'. You will grow to cope better I think is the way to say it.
Life is hard enough dealing with relationships, money, etc. and then to throw a chronic illness on top of it. All those things will be even more complicated by the MS. I agree with Sally, don't let your DH and his kids slide. You need to politely communicate with them that you need their support. The habits all of you form now in your relationships will stick and be hard to correct down the road. Talking with others who have the disease will really help. What I say is, "Healthy people can not understand sick people. Not because they don't want to, but because they just can't." This board is great. I'm continually amazed how when I post some freaky symptom I'm having how many responses I get. Welcome to our group
