It’s too much

Hi guys, I’m 8 years post RRMS diagnosis. It always affected me from the waist down but it’s now spread to my hands and arms. I’m having a bit of a meltdown over it all. Feeling very low.

I am sorry loublou I think it gets to all of us at some stage. If you are having additional issues have you thought you could have an infection somewhere? Are you using walking stick as sometimes if they are not designed to fit your height etc they can cause pain the arm and elbow and hands.

Hopefully after a sleep you will feel a bit better. If you feel depressed do see your GP they can help you hun. xx

Hi Lou, perhaps you are having a flare up or attack. When do you see your neuro or MS nurse again? If you have a long wait until the next appointment, give them a ring. Bouds xx

Hi Lou. It sucks you feel worse. I hope it’s just a “come and go” situation. All the best.

Hi Lou , It’s so annoying, frustrating and upsetting to be experiencing new symptoms:( I’m so sorry you’re feeling crappy at the moment. Please keep monitoring things and call your dr or ms team if things progress. I hope this is just a temporary blip and that you feel better soon. Take it easy , and take care

Evening everyone

Thank you so much for your lovely replies. I’m ok, just a bit worried about what the future looks like. I don’t know about you guys but I can’t remember a time when I felt normal in my legs and feet, and now my hands. I try to count my blessings and stay positive. A colleague was recently diagnosed with Motor Neurone Disease so I know things can be a lot worse. Thanks again xxx
