Hi everyone,
I was diagnosed with ms last week.I had brain and spinal cord MRI and they found inflammation I also had VEP which was abnormal too.I have pin and needles in my arm and legs and they both feel very tired even when I wake up in the morning I feel like I was standing on my legs for hours,I also have neck pain which is the reason I had MRI done.My brain MRI in 2009 was normal and spinal cord has the same amount of inflammation like it did in 2010.I have normal strenght and balance.My neurologist said I have Clinically Isolated Sindrome and he wants me to start using Copaxone.I know dr can't tell you much about disease but mine had no answers at all.He told me I can stay in the same condition for a long time or I can be in a wheelchair in a year too.I found this website and I would love to hear real stories from real people I don't even know which questions to ask but I want to see that there are people who can live normal life .I don't know if I should ask medicine .I have appointment with a sport medicine dr who suggest hormone treatment.I just read this book few months ago about a women who has ms in how in a few months she ended up in bed not able to move or talk and I just can't take this out of my head and I keep seeing myself in the same position.
So please share your stories,experience and knowledge with me.Thank you
One more thing I want to add English is my second language so I apologize for my grammar and I would be very thankful if you correct it.
