SHARON, i was dx with tm 14 years ago. i have never had a lesion on my
brain. it was on my spine 2 of them and other back problems. i saw a ms
specialist all the tests where negative no ms. i was told that one day it could
turn into ms well it has not. the lesions or the same size no change.
i have had set backs i was in the hospital NOV.05 thru
before XMAS 05 horrible pain and legs would not move. this has happened a
few times thru the years but i always got back on my feet. i now have a cataract
they watching from the Steriods .I loose weight on them i am just weird the docs
tell me i do nothing normal.
i was told that a lesion on your brain does not mean you have ms. i had
every test imaginable they thought i had ms in June of this year. my legs would
not move and more pt. i was only in the hospital 2 weeks that time. all tests
negative no ms.
i am walking with a walker now for safety, i can with a cane but my docs
said not now when my left leg is weaker. I drive I love to exercise and i
have a gym in my home which I accumulated over 14 years. i was a phys nurse and
my family owns 3 dancing schools.I cannot dance now but i never say never. i
like Barbara do as much as i can every day so i am taking her advice and not
stop exercising.the pain is really bad after i work out.
i go to the studios i choreograph, have my ladies clubs I am in .I
try to keep busy. my family all but 3 are gone in other states they lost all
with Katrina. 5 in OK one TX and my sons family in WV I am lonely but I
have to stay busy and keep these legs moving.I am lonely for my family they not
coming back. life goes on and so will my husband and i. my son wants us to
move there but our home is here. i hope you get your answers and pool
therapy to me is the best.
