My husband has just been dxed with MS and all of our friends and family keep offering excouragement. I know they are trying to be nice and help us deal with the shock of this. Well I hope they are right when they say that the meds will help him and he will probably be one of those people that is mobile for the rest of his life and has limited effects from this disease.
Then I get on here and read about people that stopped the meds for whatever reason and after however many years the disease is taking over. Or the people that have taken the meds and they still lose thier mobility. I just can't stop with the what if he is one of those that is greatly affected by this disease.
The unpredictable circumstance I find myself in scares me to death! Just not sure how to cope with this new part of my life. Everyone keeps telling me to live one day at a time. I want to but I am having alot of trouble doing this.
He is doing great or so I think...he does not seem down or depressed about the diagnosis. Any encouragement or words of wisdom is appreciated!
