Thank you LS

i am feeling alot better but still not 100% and have now found out what is wrong with me

i have a condition called optic neuritis
there is a risk of me developing MS in later years but the way i look at it is i could develop lots of other illnesses later in life so i,m not gonna worry about it and just concentrate on getting myself better

I'm sorry to hear that Jackie but you have the right attitude. Just concentrate on taking good care of yourself now.
xxxxxxxxxxxx

Thank you LS

That's the best attitude to have Jax My sis-in-law suffers from MS and she has the same attitude as you

i have to be postive Wolfie otherwise it will grind me down
and i won,t be beat :smt002

i feel alot better now, still got the blindness and pain in my head but it ain,t half as bad as it was, that lumber puncture really seemed to help

Hopefully in time and with plenty of rest, you'll be back to some sort of normality

So glad you are a little better. I can't imagine what you are going through. I am glad you are keeping you chin up. Well done. Hope you will soon start to feel more like your oldself. Take care.

Jax hope your feeling ok, I really dont know what to say, your a great character, thinking of you, It must have been hell to live with the pain, I only had it for a short time and its just awfull, your a tough bird, lol, hugs shona x

now Wolfie you know i,ve never been normal :smt002

Thank you Heather
it is with the great support of my family, friends and people like you on here that keep my chin up

Thanx Shona
yep tough as old boots me
it will take a damn sight more than this to get me down
