Welcome Hope,

Scary but nice to be a part of a wonderfully helpful community.

Ask anything and someone on this site will have an answer or will direct you to the best place to find the answer.

Happy times and sad times we are in this together, here to help and understand…

welcome hope

this community has been a lifeline for me and countless others.

i live with my husband and 2 grown up sons who are really good at caring for the person who used to do all the caring.

but when its an ms problem you just really need to sound it off people who understand.

i go to trafford ms therapy centre which is about 18 miles away and often get texts from one of the guys

he texted last night to ask if i was going to the centre today and i said “no, i’m poorly”

then he asked in what way. the conversation was really good without those questions that people without ms ask.

anyway it ended with him prescribing copious amounts of alcohol!

so welcome to the ms community.

Hi Hope,

Welcome to the MS website.

Numb and/or cold fingers sometimes make typing difficult - read your heading

and then the whole post as I wanted to know more! ha.

Glad you’ve taken the plunge, there seem to be quite a few newbies around at the moment.

Maybe it’s the season for diagnosis or the season to be brave and start posting messages.

Keep positive, and hope 2013 is a good year for you.

Jen x
