I was diagnosed in 4 and a 1/2 almost 5 years ago and don't know exactly which type of MS I have, but the symptoms are so different all the time. I wouldn't know where to begin without places like the MSAA being willing to help out and lend a hand when needed. I'm so glad that my physical therapist directed me to you and I hope to get a lot out of this relationship.

Hi NicoleWard529, and welcome! Glad to hear you found us through your PT. This is a great forum to share, to ask questions, to vent if you need to, or have a laugh. There's also lots of good info here from people who are living M.S. every day and really understand what you are dealing with. 🙂

Welcome to the group. This group has been a great support and blessing for me for 4yrs. Daily I can’t wait to read what everyone is saying daily when I wake up after reading my Bible. Often it could be 12am and I read a post that carry me through those days of hard times. It help prepare me for my day when it gets challenging often🙏🏾

Hi, Nicole Ward529. Welcome to the group. I had MS for 21 years prior to joining this forum, but it has made a world of difference for me. I still feel like death warmed over and have a lot of anxiety about the future, but I feel so much more connected and part of a community. When I'm worried or have good news, it's great to share that with people who care. I have also learned so much from the articles and resources people have posted on here. The resource that has been so empowering as to be life changing is Aaron Boster's YouTube videos on MS. A lot of content on YouTube is sketchy at best, but Dr. Boster is legit. He runs an MS Center in Ohio, and he has a gift for explaining what you can do to manage your MS and why it's important. If you like the videos, be sure to sign up for his newsletter as it tells you when his monthly "Ask me anything" live stream will be.

Do you have a Neurologist that specializes in MS? He or she could help answer some questions.

Greetings NicoleWard529. There are four types of MS. Relapsing Remitting is the more common. You have Progressive which continually keeps progressing. You have Secondary progressive. The other slips my mind. Your neurologist should be able to tell your which you have. They generally monitor you for about a year before they classify you.

Welcome!

Not a doctor, but a fellow MSer. With symptoms coming and going sporadically, I suspect you have the relapse-remitting form. Next time you see your neurologist, ask them to confirm which form it is 🫂
