Default Wanted to introduce myself
My name is Jason and I got DX the week after Thanksgiving, I had a mild case of retrobulbar neuritis and numbness in my right leg and side. The MRI showed 2 leasions the biggest was 1.3 cm, the symptoms have mostly dissapered some tingeling on the right side and a dull headache that hangs around but so far it really hasent changed much for me and if BCBSAZ will ever approve it I will start Capaxone.

Hi Jason and welcome to NeuroTalk! Sorry about your dx but glad you decided to join us here. There's a large MS community here and lots of great information. We even have our own "Stumble Inn" so we can show our silly side!

Hi Jason,
Sorry you have to be here but glad you found us. I've been on Copaxone for 4 years now and am very happy with it. I hope it works well for you.

Tell us more about yourself when you have time.

Jason, and nice to meet you.

That was a quick dx? Did you have symptoms prior to this as they usually require dissemination in time and space before they will dx :

Looking forward to getting to know you.

Cherie
