This community is a place where members can discuss current events and weigh in on what's going on in the world.
We have all been through or are going through it,
But hey, I went through it for two years, in that two years I just got on with things like it just did'nt matter.
Then I heard a few bad stories about Ms, then it hit me and it hit hard.
Stress kicked in and made things ten times worse.
But as time went on I woke up.
I was still me, nothing in my life had changed, I was still walking, riding my bike and working.
That dont happen any longer, eccept work but that will soon end I'm sure.
But I'm still here with friends and so on, not looking forward to being off my feet and so on but hey i'm 44 I can and will make my own mind up about my life and how it should pan out.
At least I'm in control.
All I'm saying is be you and stay you.

My 6mo twin DD's are EBF and just started rice cereal on the first. Everything has been going fine except this morning one of them had a diaper rash (lots of redness around her anus). I read this as one of the signs of an allergy. BUT I did just buy a different brand diaper yesterday (which they have used randomly before w/no issues). Do you think its the cereal or the diaper? Im ready to start...
I HATE MS, AND THE STRESS IM GOING THRU DUE TO A FAMILY MATTER IS MAKING THE PAIN WORSE, BUT STRESS IS SOMETHING I CANT CONTROL RIGHT NOW, SO I TAKE MY MEDS AND TRY TO GET THRU MY DAYS.

A small amount is healthy I believe. I am in denial that I'm getting old..LOL. What? I'm not 25 anymore? I cannot deny that I have MS, nor would I want to. To quote the NMSS. "Knowledge is power". The more I know about my illness, the more prepared I am.
Too much info at the beginning could have caused me to give up right then and there.
I prefer an equal balance of knowledge, strength and denial. Works for me.
so now instead of planning rock climbing..grin..i will plan on fishing...grin..
