Red face Hey I'm 28 ( waves hand like princess)

Hey I'm 28 years old, female, diagnosed this may 19, 2012. Suspect I have it for about 3 years because of so many odd symtoms that weren't explainable. I'm in NYC. I'm definitely looking for making friends who can relate because it's still a shock process and all.

And hello to everyone who has posted!!! =)

29 single beautiful female from Ca

Im so alone. All my friends are married and having families, they dont want my boring diet restrictive butt around much anymore. I just dont feel like I am as fun as I once was.

My boyfriend recently just chased me out. ::sigh:: Glad I found out it wasnt really love. I feel like I will never get married or have a family..I really really want it more than anything but who is going to want me all messed up w this? Its negative I realize, I have been off meds since March..he was going to have kids with me, he didnt even last 6 months. It hurts me really bad.

I cant find many people here in So Cal that have MS...no one younger than 50 anyway. I really would like to make some new friends too. I would really like to make friends that can understand what these feelings are like. I really am having a hard time with acceptance of something so ugly.

I am so encouraged to see so many Young Adults here!!!

I am 29, female, from Illinois. I attend University of Illinois at Springfield. Got my dx two years ago, while in school. I came to this website to find people who can relate to what I'm going through...anybody here go into the chat rooms?

26 year old female Dx July 2011

I had my first symptoms of MS in Nov 2010; so it has been about 2 years now. Started on Copaxone... just had a repeat MRI which showed new lesions. Switching to Tysabri. I have never met a single person in there 20s with MS. Which is crazy considering I work as a PA in neurology and see MS patients every day of my life. I am from Ohio and am desperate to know someone like me is out there near me!

Hey all

Hi, my name is Phil, and I am 31, dx last year Dec 2011.

Started on Rebif right after dx, had the optic neuritis, which went away after like 3 weeks. I feel the same way that everyone else does here.

Looking for support, friends, connections. Check my profile out, should be easy to find in facebook

What part of California? I live in So Cal

Hi, I'm 31 yo and and in So Cal too. I was diagnosed 5 years ago this month, actually Thanksgiving week, I was thankful to have a name for what was going on with me. I would love to have friends that actually know what I'm going through too. Especially for my bad days which I seem to be having more of :/
