Hi Bill,
Glad you are of the right frame of mind. Often getting over the shock of a having a condition like this proves insurmountable for some.
I probably was 12 or more years with MS before I decided to find out what was going on. And amazing as it may seem not one of my sx match your list, except for minor numbness. Hell of a disease! Another poster, Tawanda I think, called it a thief. Truest words spoken IMHO.
Keep up the attitude and gratitude for your family! And welcome to a bunch of caring people... another family!
Jer

MRI's revealed 3 scarred lesions 1 active lesion which is near the brain stem . Lumbar puncture shows signs of the disease ! 4 days in the hosp. 3 day steroid treatment and now first week of trifecta or what ever its called
I found this forum and have been reading up on this MS thing ! I realize that their are many among us who battle with MS ! I realize its a roulette wheel on what the future holds for any of us ! I feel very fortunate to have been able to fight back these attacks , well at least for the most part , some minor functions have been lost over the years ! Reflecting back I have been suffering in silence not knowing what was going on ! Anyways it is what it is and I wont stop fighting back !
I am very happy I have a wonderful wife who is helping me thru all this She is my angel ! My adult children are very supportive along with 6 yr old grandson ! No matter what the future holds I feel very blessed
This forum has helped me to understand what MS is doing to us ! I now realize what I deal with is not uncommon with MS! I have found some great advice and opinions and look forward to learning and sharing of our experiences .
Thank you for sharing your experience!
