Hello

[sheppma]

I was diagnosed with MS in March. I had a vertigo and double vision and a friend of mine took me to the emergency room. They did a work up for a stroke for me but after 3 MRIs, they saw lesions on my brain. I am now taking Copaxone and it has been working pretty well. However, I live by myself and can't help feeling isolated by this. Glad I found this message board.

Hello sheppma

Welcome to MS World - nice to meet you!

I am now taking Copaxone and it has been working pretty well.

Glad to hear you're doing ok and you're tolerating the Copaxone well.

However, I live by myself and can't help feeling isolated by this. Glad I found this message board.

I can relate with you there - I have MS and live by myself too. This site lets me know that I'm not alone with the challenges of living with MS.

If you have any questions, just ask and we'll be glad to help if we can. Also, feel free to share your experiences, if you want to.

Hope to be seeing you around here!

Take care,
KoKo

Welcome!

Getting diagnosed is pretty overwhelming, and there is so much information online, and not all of it is true. I've found lots of great advice, info, and links here.
