    • About Me

      I am 51 years old, living alone and have a 23 yr old daughter nearby. I have a full time job outside of the home and wish I could figure out a way to work from home using my computer skills. It is so hard to work full time and have any energy left for anything else. I am alone and don't have the energy to get involved in activities that would help me meet people.

    • Interests

      Reading, jewelry making, candle making, yard work and playing golf (which I don't do much of anymore)but still love. My biggest interest is People! I find people so fascinating and only wish I could get out more so I could meet new friends.

    • Close Multiple Sclerosis (MS)
      Type: Relapsing-remitting MS

      Diagnosed in 1997 with possible MS after MRI showed lesions. Hospitalized in 2005 with stroke like symptons and diagnosed with probable MS. Initially diagnosed in 97 with CFIDs, Fibromyalgia and depression. Struggled with doctors and diagnoses since then. Last Aug. found a neuroligist who is treating me for probable MS.

      Treatments

      Copaxone Too Soon to Tell
      Started copaxone Nov. 11, 05. It gives me hope and confidence that I can fight the MS from progressing too much.
      Provigil Somewhat Helpful
      Gives me the energy to get to work each day but I still struggle with fatigue.
