- I feel horrible. My neighbor came over to visit me a few minutes ago and we were chatting. She's a bit nosy but usually I just avoid those questions and everything is fine. After she left I realized I shared way to much information with her about...
- I'm miserable tonight. I have a disability that effects my leg and I can't drive. My dad took me to a neurologist appointment a few days ago. It was a complete disaster. He needed to leave at a specific time so he wouldn't be late for work. He...
- I just had an epiphany this afternoon. I called the place where I got my one and only MRI done. My last neuro recommended it as a place to go have it done. I asked them what strength their machine is. They said it's a 1.5 tesla. Could that...
- All of my symptoms that no one seems to be able to figure out have done nothing but get worse in the past three weeks. I've been having tremors, more spasticity, and muscle twitching. Last night I had another one of my "seizures" (for lack of a...
- I'll put the actual description in the next paragraph, this is just the background, feel free to skip it if you don't feel it's necessary to read it. I started having issues about four years ago. They put me on an antiepileptic medication when I...
- I feel useless, hopeless, and lost. I just can't deal anymore. I wish I didn't exist. No one loves me. No one cares. I just want it to die. I won't do it because of my kids but I am going to go cut myself later. I haven't done it in years but...
- I feel so overwhelmed this morning. My grandmother passed away a week ago. And my disability and mood issues are rearing their ugly heads with a vengeance. My boyfriend who won't admit he's also BP (and isn't medicated) has hit a manic episode...
- My grandma passed away yesterday. I was very close to her. She had a long term illness and it was expected but stressful all the same. In the last week I've noticed my limp is worse, my tremor is back, and I've had a few muscle twitches here and...
- I had an episode/flare a year or more ago. I had severe spasticity in my right leg from my hip all the way down to my foot. When I got spasms they were so bad that at one point they popped my knee out of place and pulled a muscle in my hip. Over...
- My grandmother is the terminally ill and isn't expected to live much longer. I have never lost someone that I'm this close with before. My birthday was four days ago and now Valentine's Day, which makes it even harder. I'm having a very difficult...
- I found this article shared on a different board but I think it's relevant here too. The article is about coping with a disability and how to be positive about the situation. Even though it's not about MS I think it's still useful for anyone who...
- I found a site that has neurological exam videos. It shows normal and abnormal results and gives a brief description. Since I love it so much and have found it so useful I thought I'd share it with all of you. ((hugs)) ...
- I went to the neuro yesterday because my pupils were dilating and contracting constantly without any change in light. The neuro did the flashlight thing. He checked me with an eye chart and I did fine. Then came the weird part. He grabbed a...
- I've noticed one or two people on the board that have fibro. I had an appointment with my GP today and he thinks I have fibro. I haven't done very much research on it yet but I was wondering if there is any kind of link between fibro and MS. Is...
- Have you talked to your children about mental illness or bipolar? If you have talked to them about it what age where they when you discussed it and how did you talk to them about it. Do you think it's a good idea to talk to children about MI? ...
