I am a 49 year old retired disable Navy veterian with a dignoses of MS sence 1986 (the Navy started doing test in 1982). However I have gotten the old "you don't have MS, it is all in your head", from one doc to "Yes you do", from the next one and so on even up to the last time I got a new primary care doc( any vet will know what I'm taking about). It is tired some and mading and even after all these years it still brings back the feelings of maybe it is "all in my head". I have never had anything show up on a MRI, althought I have had some extremly strange EPs to the point where the techs were questioned if they performed the test correctly. I have relapsing/remitting and right now I am in the middle of a relaps and feeling pretty sorry for myshelf (it gets to even us old timers) and it sucks. My Mom had a dignose of MS and my sister has extrme optic neridis in her left eye (the same side were my Mom and my systoms started) and know my two girls are showing sign of MS. My Mom was adopted in Washington state were getting any info about family memebers is like getting a bill through Congress(any sugestions would be greatly app.)so I don't know if it goes back any father then that. I take meds for the systems and depression (imagine that) and I am a FIRM believer in alternitive meds. I have been smoking pot sence my discharge from the Navy in 87 and I am just really getting to where I need a cane. I believe in it so strongly that we are in the prosess of selling our home on the East Coast and moving to Nevada were medical use of pot is legal.
Enough about the bad stuff, here some good stuff. I have the most wonderful and marolus grandkids in the world. I have 3 grandson and 1 granddauther and they are what kepts me going. It is so amazeing looking at the world through their eyes. They can get me to do thing I don't think I have the energy for, all they have to do is give me the "look" and I am a goner.
I have been married for 30 years (he is also a retired disable Navy vet), have two dauthers, and have traveled the world.
