About Me
Hello to all who read ~ started having problems with my vision (diplopia) in December 2001.Tests, i.e., MRIs, Evoked Potential, Lumbar Puncture (that hurt!) blood tests, opthoneurologist, etc., DX with Multiple Sclerosis Feb 2002. Relieved at that time since I thought it was far worse. Only to know that my life was about to change forever.I had worked in Healthcare Adminstration for 22+ years and now to be on the other spectum was & is a challenge. For the first several months, I continued to work but that was not to be. Have 3 dogs,birds, great family and friends! Hope we find a CURE~
