I'm a new member, though I've had MS since the 1970s.
For most of my adulthood I've been able to work around it, but recently, secondary progressive MS has nibbled at my ability to function without a cane.
Everyone with MS I know has had a different strategy for coping with the disease. Mine was not to tell anyone but husband and kids. That worked for me until I took Avonex and had a negative experience with the flu-like side effects.
For me, MS has definitely been a moveable feast: coming, going semi-predictably. This summer, the weather was hard to take. I've found some good tips on various MS sites so I'll be looking for that kind of post. Thanks to everyone who keeps a thread going!
