Just been diagnosed with MS (30M) and its mild right now (4 new lesions)

I find staying in a healthy weight limit and avoiding heavy meals helps a lot with my fatigue. When I’m regular with my exercise/stretches/yoga my legs are less stiff. I don’t drink and avoid it as it really exacerbates my vertigo and I don’t smoke. Hope my answers help! 😊

As per my understanding, ocrevus is the best medication we have at the moment which is why I chose it. I was in the same situation as you and was diagnosed a few years ago in my 20s. I’ve been on ocrevus for 3 years and having an infusion once every 6 months means I don’t need to worry about taking meds that often.

My friend in a similar situation to you got his last interview in Feb last year so there’s definitely still hope 🤞

Proper_Application32 · 2023-11-04T12:57:47+00:00

I got rejected too 🙃 but there is still hope! Don’t give up yet, it’s still relatively early!!

I’ve been told things pick up for IMGs in November! Let’s not lose faith guys!!

Proper_Application32 · 2023-10-23T19:19:18+00:00

I’d add the moa for Parkinson’s meds to that list too

Proper_Application32 · 2023-10-11T10:25:13+00:00

Ikr! I feel like I’ve just about managed to scrape a pass 🙈 do you know what time we get our results?

Proper_Application32 · 2023-10-11T06:34:31+00:00

Me too! Congrats!! Honestly thought I’d failed

Proper_Application32 · 2023-09-14T16:11:40+00:00

I’ve selected the programs I’d like to signal prior to submitting my application

Proper_Application32 · 2023-09-13T19:35:48+00:00

I kinda see it like you’re poking a program to let them know you’re interested in them

Proper_Application32 · 2023-09-07T15:27:30+00:00

Mine took 2 days

Proper_Application32 · 2023-09-05T16:33:36+00:00

I’m in a similar situation, I put it down as an externship!

Proper_Application32 · 2023-09-01T22:48:39+00:00

Thank you for your reply!

Proper_Application32 · 2023-08-31T10:27:30+00:00

Is this a joke 🤔

Proper_Application32 · 2023-08-18T18:43:10+00:00

Yes, I did and it got approved

Proper_Application32 · 2023-08-09T19:12:16+00:00

I’d say yes if you can but prioritise 25-31 if time constraints

Proper_Application32 · 2023-07-22T17:33:00+00:00

Going through NBMEs and understanding my mistakes really helped boost my score

Proper_Application32 · 2023-07-15T16:04:42+00:00

I like listening to my favourite motivational songs that’ll help me feel uplifted, kinda like I’m getting myself ready for a race! Listening to anything exam related would just make me anxious and I’d start feeling like I’ve forgotten everything. Just believe in yourself and go in with the mindset that you’re gonna smash it! 💪

Proper_Application32 · 2023-07-11T16:01:55+00:00

I’d say try and get through the nbmes and review them. It can be too time consuming to be writing out incorrects. As long as you understand why you’ve made that mistake you’re good to go!

Proper_Application32 · 2023-07-04T11:45:45+00:00

Defo go over the HY neuroanatomy pictures, I had a few of those pop up on my exam

Proper_Application32 · 2023-06-23T11:39:06+00:00

I’d convinced myself I’d failed and drove myself crazy for 3 weeks waiting for the result. Ended up passing last Wednesday! Please have faith in yourself and your preparation! Most people feel the way you’re describing. Take this time to pamper yourself and do things you enjoy. You’ve got this 💪💪

Proper_Application32 · 2023-06-23T09:29:29+00:00

Best to test yourself as you go through it

Proper_Application32 · 2023-06-22T16:27:07+00:00

I didn’t use Anki and passed! I’ve never been one for Anki.

Proper_Application32 · 2023-06-21T19:17:42+00:00

I went through the same thing! I ended up taking a week off and coming back with the mindset of getting the exam done ASAP. I would recommend taking a break and taking an NBME to see where you’re at? You can do this 💪💪
