About Me
I am an attorney at a small law firm. My practice is primarily commercial litigation and bankruptcy. I have always been able to work during the 11 years since my diagnosis. My main challenge with MS is bladder control. It is quite embarrassing to get up and leave the courtroom in the middle of a hearing to run to the ladies' room, but I have had to do it more than once! I was started on Avonex immediately when I was diagnosed and am still on it today. Of course I'll never know whether Avonex has been the reason for my continuing to do well, but maybe it is.
