ABOUT ME:

I believe I've had MS since my 30's, it just took a while to nail it down. I've had two flares and recently enjoyed a year of no symptoms, even felt "normal". And then the other shoe dropped. Woke up dizzy and my cognition hasn't been the same. I've had neuropsyc testing every two years for eight years now. Just had the last series of tests and was blown away by the results. Two standard deviations drop, short term memory and processing very poor. Motor skills ok, some balance issues. My husband and I are trying to plan ahead for potential problems. Devastated
