I see you also introduced yourself in this related discussion too. Nice!

Good for you and your for making walking a priority and working on a healthy diet. Coping with health stress along with pressures of the job isn't easy. It's so easy to perceive every body oddity as the worse case scenario. As you begin to relearn your body, its limits and abilities, I think you'll get better at calibrating your sense of what needs medical attention. Do you have a good medical team or doctor that you're working with to navigate the new normal of MS?

I think my neuro is a really good doc, but this is my first round with any major medical. I’m meeting with my PCP next week to go over everything. I have a great local church family that is very supportive, and I’m starting to connect with local families that are going through MS and other autoimmune issues as well. If there are other groups/teams you would suggest, I’d love to know! You can’t have too big of a care base!
