So, this is where all the cool kids hang out eh? :rofl:

I don’t really know much about this MS malarkey yet but, I suppose experience will build knowledge for me over time.

I know that I had quite a kick in 2023/24 and, they told me it was RRMS in March this year - no good boy sticker, no lolly pop, just a letter from my nice consultant. I do have changes that are here to stay - some can be quite comical at times the rest not so much.

I wouldn’t even know how to identify a relapse if it does happen :roll_eyes: I suppose I’ll figure that out over time aswell.

For now, I just try to keep active, not let boredom creep in and, see the funny stuff in life wherever I can. It works for me :+1:

Take care all x

Jon.

Hi @jthatcher welcome in, lovely to meet you :waving_hand:

I can speak from experience having been diagnosed in 2021 myself. Over time you’ll build the knowledge and what a relapse looks like for you. But lean on the people here when you need to. They’re a super bunch.
We also have our wonderful team who work on the MS Help Hub and can be contacted on **0808 800 8000.

More detail about how we can support you can also be found here: MS Help | MS Society

Do take care of yourself and keep in touch with everyone here too.

Hi everyone

My daughter, who is 36, was diagnosed with MS about 9 months ago. She already has a genetic condition and learning difficulties, and navigating this new world has been quite hard to say the least! If there are any other families/carers in a similar situation to ours it would be lovely to connect with them.

Hi guys

My girlfriend who is 23 has RRMS. I would love to connect with people to see if anything I can do or be doing better to help her. Because at times I am lost in what I can do for her and also see what we can do together as a community no matter if it’s a big or small impact.

I was looking into a fundraiser or charity even to partake in soon if anyone has any information would really appreciate it.

Thanks for reading.
