Bad News......

It turns out that I do have MS. I was diagnosed on Wednesday.

I haven't been on the last couple of days because I have been running around like a lunatic between the start of school and doctors appointments. Yesterday I went straight from the city to 45 minutes of intravenous steroids and a MRI.

They said that it is important to keep the stress level down with this disease and ironically I have had nothing but stress these last two weeks Chat Icon

So now I have to learn to live with the debilitating disease and raise a little girl. My prognoses is good in the fact that we caught it early on. I start medication therapy immediately.

Luckily I have an awesome DH who had really shown me how much he loves me these last couple of weeks. Without him I think I might have gone insane!

My neurologist said I should have no problem having more children provided the MS doesn't get any worse.

I just want to thank all of you for the prayers and hugs. Also the FMs meant a lot to me.
