I am new to this site. I was diagnosed at 16 with RRMS at 16 and now age 50. I have had quite a few episodes but bounced back with steroids and therapy. I still have right side numbness but I still walk but with a limp. It's good to have others that I can likely get to know who face the same challenges.

You have come to the right place to get to know others! Someone here will get it! And understand.

So jump in anywhere and get to know us and we get to know you! πŸ€—πŸ’•

Your profile says your interested in clinical trials, have you done any? I haven't as of yet.

I know some here take part in them. πŸ€—πŸ’•β›„

I have done any as of yet. I have only done a survey and would be willing to do others.

Welcome to the family! You've been dealing with MS almost as long as I have ( 39 years), and you started

much younger. This Forum has been so welcoming to me, and we all get it, we KNOW what you are dealing with. Welcome home!

Welcome Maroonout. I hope that you enjoy this group as much as I do. Sometimes when I have a question there is an answer. Sometimes when I have input I can share, sometimes when I need a smile or know that someone understands the group has been here for me. We are so happy that you are here.
