Hey Everyone,
I am recently diagnosed with PPMS. I am depressed, confused, frightened
and my thoughts are everywhere. My MS dr. told me to start researching meds
to see which one I want to go on. I don't have exacerbations/flare ups.
I went to my primary physician 48 hours after a final DX for a cough and confided
in him. I was on the verge of tears and emotional. His response to me was
"you are not dying." WTH ! Really ? I wonder how he would feel if he was in my shoes
or if he found out if his wife was in my shoes. Sometimes I think I can't possibly have this
disease, maybe the neuro is wrong. Other times, I think why me..I have always tried to be
a good person...why am I being punished? To be honest, sometimes I have a pity party parade
and wonder why another health issue. I already have other issues. I am not coping well with this diagnosis.
I have admiration for people who are so strong and just deal with whatever curveballs come their way.
I am not one of those people. I am just venting out of misery.
