    • About Me

      I am married and have one teenage daughter. I found out I had MS in 2005, I started treatment with avonex in 2006. I still work , but gonna have to find a new job soon. I work at a restaurant, so on my feet for 8 hours a day. My muscles and feet kill me by the end of the week. I might go back to school to try something new, but just thinking right now. I have alot of questions about MS as I progress more with desease. That why I joined DS

    • Little Love

      From Tacklems April 27

      Anytime you need a friend If you're lonely And need a friend And troubles seem like They never end, Just remember to keep the Faith, And Love will be there to Light the Way Anytime you need a friend, I will be here. You'll never be alone again, So don't you fear. Even if you're miles away, I'm by your side. So don't you ever be lonely. Love will make it alright. When the shadows are closing in And your Spirit deminishing, Just remember you're not alone, And Love will be there To Guide you Home. (Chorus) If you just believe in me, I will Love you endlessly. Take my hand. Take me into your Heart. I'll be there forever, baby. I won't let go. I'll never let go. Anytime you need a friend, I will be here. You'll never be alone again, So don't you fear. Even if your miles away, I'm by your side. So don't you ever be lonely. It's alright. It's alright.

      I was told I had ms in 2005, I started treatments in 2006 with avonex. Once the drug in in your system for a while it does work, but alot of side effects. My daughter says I have changed with drug.But not sure if its the drug or we have drifted apart. I wanted to join a support group to help our relationship. My husband has been very supportive and I know things are much different with our lives. Avonex works for me because I still work full-time. I just need some moral support!!

      Treatments

      Avonex Working / Worked
      Take two extra strength tylenol a half before injection, and two more tylenol 6 hours after. I really helps with flu symtoms. At first I would take tylenol every 6 hours for a full 24 hours. But now two doses of tylenol really is really all I need.
