Taking a minute to filter through emotions…ms did a factory reset on my body. Quite literally. Relearning how to walk, write, open a jar…it was so random and out of nowhere when the flare hit.

Welcome to the group. So sorry about all you are dealing with. Unfortunately, M.S. is so unpredictable, I find it one of the hardest things to deal with. Flare-ups can just hit you like a freight train with absolutely no warning. Wishing you the best as you get through this rough period. This is a good forum if you have any questions or concerns or just need to vent. Keep us posted on your progress.

Late reply, Supermom. It may feel like a bomb was dropped & the old you is gone. We have all felt that way. It's life - changing, so I hope you give yourself time to grieve. It gets better. Slowly. Please be kind to yourself. As a former over-achiever, I still struggle with the fact that I can't do all I once did. There were LOTS of tears. Not just boo hoo. I am talking about the ugly cry!We are here for you. Let us hear from you! I read Isaiah 41:10 every morning. Grace & peace to you!
