I'll say hello here as well! :)
 

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.

Hello and welcome to NeuroTalk. Great to see you have come to be with us. Just let us know if we can be of any help.

Again welcome, looking forward to seeing you around.

Thank you for the warm welcomes. Love the graphics! :)

Hi there, it's so lovely to meet you! I also have MS so I'm sure we'll meet up again in the MS Forums at some stage.

I'm pleased you like the graphics because I really do too. If you're interested in how to add your own pretty pictures, go to this thread where some of our more learned people have given instructions on how it's done. http://neurotalk.psychcentral.com/thread37625.html

Don't forget that thread is still open if you have any questions.

Hi and welcome to NeuroTalk! There is a large MS community here as I'm sure you discovered on the MS Forum and also at The Stumble Inn.

I'm glad you decided to join us and I look forward to seeing you around the board!

Hi, Dmplaura! :Wave-Hello: Welcome to NeuroTalk!

Yep, MS is always such a party. Well, welcome and feel free to join in anywhere! :)

Hello Dmplaura:) So glad you found us here at NT. As for MS...most of my very best friends are dealing with MS. My DH was diagnosed int 1986.

Appreciate the link to the thread about adding graphics. Thank you, I'll check it out later. I especially like the awareness ribbons I'm seeing people use :)
