I'm a teen going through stages of testing for MS

[jordynbbz]

i'm 15 and from western Australia, not yet diagnosed, but being tested for about 9 months now. changing hospitals cos ill soon be 16 (too old for the childrens hospital) aha new doctor, new look on things i hope? everything was looking towards MS except the lumbar puncture although i think im still be put on treatment. just joined here mainly to find other teens to talk to about their experiences. but everyone's comments have been amazing and so welcoming

and just b/c ur lp is negative doesn't mean u dont have MS, (isn't this disease great )

anyway, im 20 from the U.S. (New York State on the shores of Lake Erie) been dxd for almost 7 years now (will be in 3 weeks)

Welcome to the site. I was dx at 16, Im 22 now. I had a neg LP too, they dx me based on MRIs. Its definitely hard getting dx at such a young age Feel free to email me if you want to talk or need anything

[jcha0518]

I understand

Hi, I was dx at 14 and I'm now 20. I get extra down sometimes bc it's 100Xs harder to do fun things that most 20 yr olds do. How do you cope?

[Lovebug]

Im here for you too!

IM about to be 17 in december and was dx at the age of 15 in aug of 09 so ive been living with ms for almost two years any of you can talk to me my e-mail is on my profile for anyone who is logged on to ms world feel free to e-mail me plze! I think a second opinion will be good for you I was lucky and was dx very fast. however everyone is different. goodluck!

Jordyn,

I wanted to tell you about something available in Australia. There's a doctor there who has MS, has written a book that's very helpful and hopeful. He also runs retreats.

Take a look. In NZ, the book is actually given out to every MS patient by the MS Society.

I'M at the hospital at this very moment

My neuro called my mother at her work on Tuesday telling her that they have found out I have lesions on my brain and spine. She told me I am to go to the hospital the very next day to run some tests to figure out what type I have. As of right now, I'm waiting on my Spinal Tap results to come back.
