The welcome I’ve received has been wonderful and unexpected.😁

I use the motorized scooter when I’m simply too tired to walk. When I can walk, I use a rollator-walker.

I’ve recently been diagnosed with anemia, which I guess is common among people with MS.

I had one infusion of iron, and return tomorrow for the second. I thought the symptoms were just more of the MS, so I hope to be less weak, fatigued, and short of breath!

It’s a good reminder to get checked for other conditions if symptoms change. Not everything is MS indeed!

Hello and welcome. Hope you stay with us. So many people leave after a short time and don’t come back. Again Welcome.

G'day and welcome to the family. She who must be obeyed also has anemia and her Doc prescribes her iron tablets as a supplement, it does seem to help.

I'm glad you discovered the anemia and are being treated for it. You're so right in realizing that not all our symptoms are due to MS. Thanks for the reminder!
