Welcome Lee. We’re a very helpful, supportive and often humorous bunch here. Depending on your sense of humour of course… I’ve been given really good advice and support from other posters. I know you will too. Sorry to hear about your diagnosis; you’re in the right place. Look after yourself. xx

Welcome Lee to this brilliant site.

There is always an ear to listen here whenever you need one.

I was diagnosed 8 years ago and have been a member of this site since then. I don’t know what I have done without the lovely people here.

Look forward to chatting with you.

Shazzie xx

hi lee

welcome to our happy band!

just because you won’t be aware of what is available - here goes

ms therapy centres are great places for meeting other people with ms and offer some great therapies

HBOT hyper barric oxygen therapy is excellent.

MS Life is on next summer in manchester. its a huge exhibition with loads to see, lots of speakers on and well worth a visit.

Hi Lee,

Welcome to the world of MS (although maybe welcome isn’t quite the right sentiment). I’ll just say ditto that all that lot above and shut up.

[quote=“Gray”] Hi lee Great people on here,like having a bunch of close friends,in an exclusive club that no one wanted to join Take care Gray [/quote] I know it’s not funny but your phrasing really made me chuckle! Do you think a sense of the ironic comes free with diagnosis? xx
