What a surprise ...

[malena]

Hi all, I am from Serbia, and living with a diagnosis of APS 8 months.

Whatever it is difficult to reach a diagnosis, I had the good fortune to meet a great neurologist.

I had a facial paresis with poor reflexes of the right arm and leg.

During two weeks of treatment and subsequent tests, we came to this diagnosis.

So far I have only joint pain, dry mouth, and sometimes poor concentration

Aspirin 100mg treat me and honestly I'm not sure whether it was good.

I try to accept this without panic and fear, but since little is known about this dont nou what awaits me in the future.

But I am always positive and smiling and I hope only nice things.

I know that I must be strong because I have 36 years and two children and life is still ahead.

This summer we had a wonderful holiday in Halkidiki, Greece.

I try to be informed, to get to the good doctor and to eat healthy and move.

What tomorrow brings, we'll see.

I love you all and wish you the best.

Hi Malena, you have the best attitude for life and what it will throw at us... keep up the positive thoughts. I am glad you have the diagnosis and now you can move forward. I feel we are all in the same boat of not knowing what is in front of us, and so you have the best attitude for moving forward. I salute you. Big hug, and take care x
