Re: Would someone please....

Hi Ratapuppy1
Unforutnatley, I've read that the leison are there to stay. I've read that there is a difference in there inhancement on the mri. That they can tell you weather they are old or new leisons. The meds we take for the ms are hopefully slowing the progrssion of more leison developing. It's a mystery to me and as far as other autoammine desease it being a domino effect. No, I think we just have to learn to deal with the one as far as I know of. The problem is that there are all sorts of complications that can come out of ms. Flu turns into phenomia real quick so we are suppose to have both flu and phenomia shots on us. The minute we feel sick we have to run to the doctors office for anitbiatics. Mine is at the point to where my bp is everywhere, for years 120/70. Now I don't know what it will be from one doctors visit to the next. I'm still learning. Hang in there!

Re: Would someone please....

Thank you very much for answering my post. I find out my results from my neck and brain MRI soon. I had that done this last Saturday. All I want to know is what is wrong with me. What can I call all these symptoms. For years I have been shuffled from doctor to doctor for all my woes, hopefully I will have some answers soon. Thanks again for your resonse.

Re: Would someone please....

I keep telling everybody in doubt that what ever is going on with them to keep a diary. dates, times, symptoms, how long they last, Ratapuppy1, stress is the last thing that anyone with ms needs, the anxiety, the worry, all of it and the first thing a doctor wants to diagnos someone with is stress, anxiety, depression, when in fact they are the one causing it by not looking for the root of the problem. They leave us with worry and doubt eating away at us. That's where a diary would benefit all of us that have ever had any doubts about our symptoms. Your question about the domino effect of autoamuine deseases would be a good question for your doctor start now at making a list of questions for him, give him alittle more work for his money. That and a lack of communication because we put up with so much for so long we can't remember it all. Just hang in there and your not alone! Keep me posted> I'm wishing for positive news.

Re: Would someone please....

I have the least stress in my life right now than I ever have. I was married to an abusive alcoholic for 19 years. I started college shortly after back surgery because I couldn't do college and my ex too. I chose college. He put more stress on me than I could ever explain. Being with him after 6 years I developed the diabetes, then after I left him in 1999 I went from type 2 diabetes to type 1, and my hashimoto Thyroid went to full hypothyroidism. Menopause too..and all this time I'm being shuffled from Doctor to Doctor...my arthritis doctor put me on the Neurontin, yet he wouldn't really listen to all my other woes because he blamed all my symptoms on my back. Anyway, my ex would make me stress out so bad that when he would upset me, I would just shake so hard that I couldn't get ahold of myself. Thank god I found the courage to leave. I will post my results of the MRI wehn I find out. I know the damage of stress, yet I haven't experienced major stress for 5 years now. I can't handle it anymore. I need calm and quiet. Im only 42 years old, and I feel like a 60 year old..lol..Thanks for the ear!
