I already said hello on the Multiple Sclerosis specific boards, but I'll chime in here.

I'm new here, but not new to the Internet, or trying to figure out the health issues that riddle me daily. I was dx'ed with MS in March of 2008, so fairly new. I had been suffering with symptoms of neurological nature for 2-3 prior to the MS dx.

Day to day, I suffer from various symptoms resulting from MS, however the big one for me is actually burning mouth syndrome. It's one that I hope to be able to control or figure out to a degree. Calming the burning will help immensely in being able to deal with the rest day to day!

Other than that, I'm a 31 year old woman from Canada. I have an excellent GP and neurologist, so I am lucky. I shoot Copaxone daily for MS, but I also take Neurontin and Amitriptyline currently for the burning mouth (do not seem to be working).

I'm an avid gamer. Gaming is great, takes my mind off the daily aches and pains, and keeps my mind and reaction times busy and working. I also love art, crafting, reading.
