Life kinda sucks right now...

[JenBlaze]

Please pardon my whining. I know I may be just a tad bit too new here to start griping, so feel free to completely ignore me.

I have a doctor's appointment on Thursday, and I'm really scared.

Basically, for the past two months or so, I've had a ton of just lovely problems... migraines 3 times a day, can't walk straight, I drop things all the time, can't take hot baths anymore because they make me too weak... and more.

I have two little girls, ages 1 and 4, and I can't take care of them right now. And it's really getting me down. I've been told I most likely have MS, and if I do, I may not get any better.

This all kills me. I'm only 24.

So, anyways, there's my gripe. Sorry to subject you all to it. I just had to get that off my chest.

Yikes! I really hope they get to the bottom of what's going on quickly and correctly....and that it's nothing major! Keep us posted...

 

[Rajah]

I hope they can find out what the problem is, and that it's something they can treat or even better yet cure.

Prayers and pixie dust...

I hope it's not MS, or that if it is you're as lucky as my mom has been with her MS....She's in remission and the only real effect she has is being very tired.

 

[Boo'sMom]

hope it all works out for you

I am really sorry that you are having to deal with so much. I went through all kinds of craziness looking for a diagnosis, and it is hard and frustrating. I am definitely sending prayers and pixie dust your way!

You will be in my thoughts and prayers on Thursday. Please keep in touch and let us know how you're doing.

 

[JenBlaze]

Thank you all for the kind thoughts. I'll definitely let you all know.

Hugs to you!
Try not to worry too much (I know, easier said than done). I went through something very similar and I thought MS for sure! It was not, it was a combination of things. I suffer from Fibromyalgia and the migraines I get sometimes mimic strokes. So much so I was in the hospital for 3 days! They did an MRI of the brain to look for lesions (that indicates MS usually) but it was clear. Of course my DH told the Dr. "I could've told you there was nothing up there!"
Was it your DR. who thought MS? Are you having tests done?
Lupus could be the trouble too.
Do a search on Lupus and Fibromyalgia and see if anything there makes sense. If you are an AOL member there is a great message board for Fibromyalgia and people share their symptoms, it's amazing all the different ones.
Take heart though, no matter what they say we are all here to support you.
Feel free to email me or PM anytime becuase I know what you must be going through!

As you see Jen, you're never too new to get support. I wish I had some advice for you. I just said a prayer.

I hope things go well at the doctors and they can find a cure for you. If it is MS that you have got a have a wonderful friend who is an excellent mum who also has MS. Yes she has bad days but she has a great life.
