[quote=“NanaJuls”] Hi Steve I was diagnosed a year ago. My first symptoms were 37 years ago but thankfully they disappeared for a long time. I was pretty certain that it would be MS once problems started showing themselves again. I have always been a glass half full person…happy, smiley and very positive. The diagnosis most definitely changed me - for a long time I was suffering with symptoms and trying to get them under control. I was miserable, cried a lot, felt VERY sorry for myself and I wanted sympathy! I didn’t like me then, not one little bit. Gradually over the past year I have been coming to terms with my symptoms, getting medication that deals with most of them, most of the time and I have been trying to get back to being me again. I can say that right now I feel like my old self…thankfully pretty symptom free now, back in the gym and looking forward to life. There is and always will be a tiny part of me that goes into ‘what if’ mode if something new happens, but i’m trying to take things one day at a time - which is all any of us can do really. I am not who I was - but i’m as pretty damn close as I can be and that in itself makes me happy. I wish us all the very best our lives can give us.
