Hi Once checking in from Maryland. Been on here several times, but was letting my pity party take me to another level. Well it's been a year since Dx and not sure how me and MS is going to surive.
I'm having to move from my home after 19yrs because my family all believe that one day I'll be coming down the steps and be at the bottom of them. Some days I believe that same. Especailly on the mornings my legs have an on-going argument with my brain.
I'm currently on Copaxane; that is when I can afford the co-pay. Working and having insurance doesn't seem to be a good fit these days. Doctor bills piling up and everybody wants you to go see some type of specialist.
I'v been working since the age of 16 and can't seem to catch a break anywhere. Use to take care of family and friends and they seem to be few and far between. I understand now why some people become homeless. It's either live or live healthy.
Oh my gosh, if I see another Depend I think I will cry. My bladder does new wonderful tricks doin the course of the day and several times during the night. Besides not being able to go into a store by myself, but my Victoria Secret that hasn't seen the daylight for a year is SAD.
Everybody has their issues with MS; and all of them are justified. But sometimes don't you just feel like somebody slappedyou in the face.
Thanks for letting me vent....we all do somedays.
Once was a totally different person
