i am 24 years old i look healthy someone told me the other day that they couldn't tell that i have ms like maybe people with ms normally wear signs that say "hey i have ms" i am in college and there are some simple things i enjoy like having a beer with friends or tanning i really enjoy being tan well my doctor has told me not to drink due to meds i am on and that tanning is a big no no due to intense heat which is not good for us with ms i also used to run and now i have problems with "jello legs" so running is out for a while till my legs get back to "normal" so here is my thought my doctor said to just be normal and to do my normal stuff but i can't do my normal stuff!!! i feel like i should be able to do normal stuff i don't feel sick just wierd i just wanted to vent and no one i know really understands why it makes me so mad when people tell me i look normal i thought maybe you guys would understand. thanks heather
