About dig

I am married to a great guy and I have 2 adult children and 2 grandchildren. I work as a radiology tech in a small clinic. My husband & I work with the youth at church and we're very involved there. My first major attack was in January 2009. Since January, I have seen 3 neurologists. The first didn't want to deal with me/MS. The second simply placed me on maintenance meds & let me be. Needless to say, my symptoms grew worse without him trying anything. By the way, I was never tried on SoluMedrol until my current neurologist. He is very aggressive and has no problem seeking advise elsewher

More About dig

Since last year, I have been placed on 3 different medications for MS - 1: Copaxone 2: Rebif 3: Tysabri. Throughout this last year, my symptoms became steadily worse. I now walk with a cane for balance and mobilty. I become fatigued fairly easy. And I now have a paroxysmal tremor first thing in the morning or if I have been immobile for more than a half an hour. I know that this last medication should help with controlling future attacks & hopefully decrease the number of lesions that I have. By the way, my MRI is worse from last year - more lesions & enlargement of existing ones.
