Hi MS warrior. I was quite young when I first had symptoms, but wasn't Dx until almost 10 years later. How are you doing now? Are you taking any medicines?

You have MS. Try not to let MS have you! Stay strong! It's so much easier said then done, I know. This support group is awesome. It helps to know you're not alone.

Hidden I believe I can track symptoms to shortly after I hit puberty and by the time I was in my early 20s it began to attack in earnest every 2-3 years. I was not diagnosed till 42 and my worst symptoms really began around 50. I am now 64 and still fairly active and comfortable so I want to let you know more than anything not to give up hope or finding a medication that can make your life easier and normalize it.

I am new to this site also. I also have pain over the left side of my body. Do you take anything for the pain? Gabapentin works for me.

I have had regional pain from MS for decades and have chosen to deal with it mostly non-chemically through meditation, exercise, massage, use of a TENS machine and occasional ultrasound. For me that works more effectively than taking Gabapentin or topramax or elavil or other meds that have been found to help nerve pain.
