Hi Dave rant away my friend, ive just been given a prob Dx of MS and i can hardly walk at times so know how you feel
Hi Dave, a good rant is good for you. I got my definitive diagnosis on Jan 21st this year. I want to rant, but dont know what about or who to rant at.
I cant get my head around it at the moment. It just comes crashing down on me at any time. I try and stay possitive, then something will happen and I cant find anything to be positive about.
keep well

Bless you Sue, it’s really early days for you. That uptight feeling when you don’t know what to do is so familiar, I was only dx last year too. Be kind to yourself and let us know if we can help in any way. It’s a funny illness that causes your life to change daily.

Hi Dave, I’ve come late to this thread but I understand where you’re coming from. The reality of this illness can hit you like a sledgehammer from time to time and it’s heartbreaking. It is true though that PPMS can be very variable! My legs are really dreadful atm and I’m having terrible troubling walking but I may wake up tomorrow and they may be a lot better for a while. It is a huge lottery and you never know where you are with it. Keep positive though! Teresa xx

I always think that things will be better/feel better tomorrow, so I think I’ve discovered since Dx that I am so much more the optimist than I ever realised…well, it’s either that or sheer deperation! I’m not really sure but I think you have to have something to aim for if you are gonna survive.
I didn’t comment here yesterday as I was having ‘one of those days’ and boy, I cried (proper balling my eyes out, not dignified at all) for about an hour when I got home last night. But I’m feeling more positive today
Dave, we all need to rant sometimes and wow, MS never makes for boring does it?! I seem to be having a tough one recently, so have been a bit too grim for my own liking, I desperately want to shake myself out of it - it’s just hard to cope some days when everything’s a struggle.
OK, I’m off (I need my bed) but hope everyone’s OK
