    • Interests

      Have a lot of interest and the desire to do a lot of things. Only problem is that I have zero energy and staminia and can't do anything.

    • Close Multiple Sclerosis (MS)
      Type: Progressive Relapsing MS

      Complicated medical history with cancer and now MS. Doctors at MD Anderson Houston were the ones to discover my pain and other issues were due to MS. Took longer to find a Nuero that would take the time to look at scan and test results and o their own testing. Currently on Copaxone. Has been helpful, especially in the beginning but has not had any positive effect long term on energy, pain or not getting brain lesions.

      Treatments

      Aqua Therapy Working / Worked
      This helps me with pain in my legs, ankles, feet and back. It will help to back off the pain at least for a little while.
      Betaseron Not Working
      Betaseron was not an effective treatment for me after 4 months use, we stopped treatment.
      Copaxone Somewhat Helpful
      There was some improvement in the beginning. Still have pain, always tired or tire easily and still getting lesions. Will have to speak with Dr. to see what he thinks
      Provigil Not Working
      We tried in order to help with my energy levels and memory. Unfortunately was not effective for me - did not help in anyway.
      Swimming Too Soon to Tell
      Going to try water exercise and swimming. Waiting for new health club with indoor pool to open. At least in water I will not hopefully have to deal with heat issues and getting sick quickly
