Hi @anisha1232 @ricksraleigh @chefbrown @tlgreg60 @rockypoint67 @sebley12 @manysilver @jessejames4534 @carolyns and @lal2 I'd like to invite you to the new discussion about multiple sclerosis to make it easier for you to meet other Connect members living with and talking about MS. Pull up a chair and tell us a bit about yourself.

Hi my name is Debbie or Debs. I was diagnosed in October last year. I have had all the tests and bloodwork done. I hardly have any issues except I struggle to walk and have had one episode of my left eye closing I am very lucky with my team but I lost my job because of memory and cognitive issues causing problems. I gave been paid out my disability which I used some of to pay hospital bills not covered by my medical aid or my Gap cover. I can hardly get out of bed and when I do my physics exercises I have to sit down often as my breathing is compromised as well as my heart. I think my treatment is helping. I am with all of you all the way

My name is Helen and I was diagnosed with RRMS in 1996. Six years ago, I progressed to SPMS. Within the last nine months, my legs have gone from great to terrible. I'm scared of losing the use of my legs. I'm hoping for an appointment at Mayo Clinic to see if there is anything that can be done to help me. I've had serious reactions to all the medications I've tried, so I'm not taking any medication. I'm frustrated and scared. Fingers crossed for an appointment sometime soon.
