About superstar

I am outgoing and always am on the go, since my diagnosis, it has been hard to pull back and slow down a little for me. I was originally diagnosed with MS and thought I had that for almost a year and had come to accept that through the support of my wonderful family and friends and just with time. I had my second relapse last November and my Doctor had me do another MRI which showed more lesions and he decided to have me do the NMO Blood test which came back positive. I still remain positve but have my moments. I am surrounded by a great support network through loved ones. I remain working.
