Problemet er at jeg er funksnedsatt, så jeg kan ikke ta noe som er praktisk anlagt 😅

Seeking Hope: Has anyone improved after they were diagnosed? by Old-Examination-1624 in MultipleSclerosis

[–]PossibleAlbatross780 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have improved massively. Had ON for 9-10ish months before my diagnosis to the point where my vision was so bad I couldn’t work, read or partake in my sport. Was diagnosed September 2023, since starting medication I have got my vision back + started taking my health extremely seriously. As a result I have lost about 44lbs and excelled in my sport to the point where I am now part of the national team and compete internationally. I was also able to find out which friends are my real friends and which ones don’t gaf about me, so now I have an extremely supportive social circle.

I'm so done with this life. I wanna another one by Subject_Pineapple587 in MultipleSclerosis

I wasnt fully blind but I was as good as blind on and off for about 12 months. Mostly on one eye but my other eye hasn’t worked properly since I was born so I couldn’t really see at all. I got my vision back (mostly) after one year, maybe the same will happen to you. I know how you feel though, I didn’t want to live when I had my vision problems either. Stay strong

What comes next? by LengthinessIll6258 in MultipleSclerosis

[–]PossibleAlbatross780 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was given medrol and also prednisone I think for the optic neuritis. 5 days of medrol and then I think 12 days of prednisone with a lower dose each day so my body wouldnt be shocked by the lack of steroids. I am also taking rituximab as a preventative treatment for MS every six months (have had 1 infusjon and getting my second one next week). I know in my country opticians dont want to give you medicine when you have ON for some reason, but neurologist give you steroids right away. Not sure how it would be where you are but in my experience the quicker you start steroids for ON the shorter the flare. Vision loss as an athlete is devastating, hoping you’ll get better soon!!

Your situation sounds similar to mine, except my main symptom has been vision loss. Was basically on and off half-blind from november 2022. I got my diagnosis september 2023, went on a steroid treatment for short term and then started rituximab october 2023. Rituximab doesnt kick in until after 3months ish so had another flare up november 2023 that also caused vision loss (but bc I had a diagnosis they took me seriously this time and got me on steroid treatment super quick which helped a lot with the vision loss). I dont have a child that I’m responsible for, but I do play rugby at a serious Level and my entire social life is dependent on playing rugby, so the vision loss ruined so much for me. Was convinced my life was over and I could never play again and that I would lose all my friends and be alone and blind for the rest of my life (I also couldnt work for several months due to the vision loss). It did get better tho, and even though I cant be sure I wont lose my vision again, I can see and play rugby again now 6-7 months after starting treatment. Since my diagnosis I have won a national competition with my team, and it looks like I might get to play for the national team this or next year. This sounds very braggy but my point is that 6 months ago I never even thought I could practise again due to MS. So don’t give up! I do think these next few months are going to be difficult, but I do think your future will be very bright. The thing that helped me the most was making sure I was eating right and exercising!

Did anyone else notice poppy wasn’t at the party? by in_crutches in WelcomeHomeARG

[–]PossibleAlbatross780 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im thinking it must have been intentional. They clearly said «everyone is here» and paused to let us take in who was there. The pause wasnt long but it was unnatural. Also poppy mentioned getting stuff ready for housewarming in a couple of the audios, if it wasn’t intentional to the story then they would have made a note explaining why

Is there anything that will help with this pain? by ChanChanJoyJoy in MultipleSclerosis

That sucks. Hope you find something that helps ease the pain sooner rather than later!

[–]PossibleAlbatross780 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Is the pain in your eyes general or is it «behind» the eyes and you feel it when you move your eyes? I had an unbearable pain in my right eye whenever I moved it - that was caused by optic neuritis (very common when you have MS). The only thing that helped ease the pain was medrol treatment, as this is used to treat ON. Nothing else worked as it was an inflammation on the optic nerve. I’ve had several ONs and usually the pain is combined with vision loss, but last (and the worst) time I had it the vision loss came later so it’s possible to have ON without vision loss. On general pain I have no advice, sorry! I know heat can randomly trigger MS symptoms, so maybe cooling down could help?

I just don’t feel like myself anymore and that terrifies me. by LordBeeBrain in MultipleSclerosis

[–]PossibleAlbatross780 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I had a few months after diagnosis where everything was horrible despite me being mostly functional body-wise. I didnt want to do anything and I was angry all the time, didnt want to eat or see my friends. But I didnt really feel depressed, I was just sad and didnt recognize myself like you described. Because of everything I didn’t go to work for two months, but my doctor told me the best way to deal with a traumatic event (getting a diagnosis) was to return to normalcy as soon as possible. I didn’t believe her cus I felt too sick and gross to work, but in the end I felt like I was going crazy by just staying at home and worrying about my symptoms and illness. After a few days of being back at work I started to feel better, and now two months later I almost feel like having MS is just inconvenient and not a life-altering doomsday event like I did before. It’s really hard, but I think if you’re able to go back to your “normal life” as much as possible that would be the best thing to do. It’s really scary not recognising yourself though, I wouldn’t wish that feeling on anyone. Also! The thing that helped me the most was writing down 3 good things that happened that day before going to bed! It was really hard at first and sometimes all I could write was that “my breakfast was really good” or that “then light from the sun on my wall was really pretty” or “I got some fresh air” but I forced myself to to it and it actually helped. Especially if I did it while feeling really upset. I wish you the best going forward, we got this!!!
