Hello, i have been diagnosed for 18months and never even knew about this site. Sometimes just need to talk to people who understand.

Well i am on avonex and have been for 18 months MRI in Oct showed no change due for another in Mar. I have a 2 and 6 year old and find it very hard to keep up with children who know they are faster then I am. My symptons don't change often just come and go. I think kids are good because they make you keep going. So I am a big believer in having something to work with or towards. I think the medication keeps me steady no decline.

Thanks for sharing. I have two sons, 18 and 10. I have been lucky because they have learned that I need help sometimes. They gladly step-in when I cannot make things happen.

Stay positive!! It looks like you are doing really well. I agree, kids keep you going!!

Hi Cinta, Another Aussie.. This site is awesome. I've been dx with MS for 8 years now. Also on Avonex. I found this site on a back of a book i read about MS.
I too have two kids. Aged 10 and 5. Both at school now so that gives me alot of me time. Jump on the boards anytime. We're always lurking around.
