Hi. I have joined MS World in hopes of a private safe place to vent on bad days. Although my good friends and family know that I have MS (dx in 2000 at age of 27) FB is just not secure enough for me due to my professional site there.
I am mom to two girls and wife for 15 years. Been taking Copaxone for 6 years (nothing before that due to wanting to start a family)
I am having a bad day. Maybe its pms, maybe its hubby being away on business for total of 3 weeks (coming home in 2 days) or combination of a bunch of other things. I feel like my body is finally falling apart. I am ambulatory, drive and do all the typical mommy things. I work part-time on my own schedule. I had a bad relapse in 2002 leaving my dominant right hand and arm numb permanently. The last 2 years I have noticed a significant sift downward which is upsetting. I had an unexplained fracture to my left foot back in the Fall which is healed but now I feel like something isn't right with the same bones in the right foot (seeing orthopedic specialist tomorrow).
Can anyone here attribute unexplainable stress fractures to their MS or to Copaxone? My neuro says no but I have no other explaination. I am maybe 15 lbs overweight, eat lots of calcium, had a bone density test in the Fall and it was fine too.
Anyway, I'm done rambling. Looking forward to "meeting" you all.
