i,m devastated here, am in tears and don't think i could cope with a illness like that
i know i was brave before but now they have said it, i,m so completly lost

so am off to see the surgeon on the 27th july
Hi Jackie, My nephew is going through the same thing at the moment, diff symptoms but they are saying poss MS, I dont really know much about ms but the chap at the end of the road has it and I wouldnt have had a clue, apparently it can lay dormant then flare up then nothing again for years, its a very strange illness, I do think though having talked to others that if they dont really know whats wrong they often say ms, then later it turns out to be something else or a one off kinda thing, really hope this is the case for you, keeping my fingers crossed, love shona x

Thanx Shona

i learnt abit about MS on my nursing course and yes you are right it can lay quiet for ages and then flare up
the hardest bit i find is being tired all the time

i have been at he hospital this morning, hubby drove me, i saw the doc, came home and now i am shattered
it is not like me to feel like this all the time

the doc i spoke to today said that MS makes you feel like this, and i just find it hard to accept that i may feel like this for a long time to come

hope your nephew is sorted soon hun
xx

I'm not surprised you feel frustrated honey - so would I - but if it's the best place for you to go, try and be patient. Best to get the "best" people for the job IMO.

Big hugs honey - hope the pain is not too bad 'til then xoxox
