pregnancy and multiple sclerosis...

[nugget80]

along side the norm al tiredness and morning sickness that is to b e expected, after 7 years of being relatively well i n ow appear to be havi ng a relapse and have lost pretty m uch all use of my right hand... i can't even write my name! i am back off to docs shortly to see if i can fix an app with my neuro, but i am just feeling so frustrated and upset... was hard enough throwing up everyday, without this...! just wondered if anyon e else has had
similar experience?

Hey hun, i am not in your position howver my mum has m.s and has had a few nasty relapses in which she has lost sensation down one side, and vomiting, which has left her with a permenant vertigo......she is 54 and doing great but also tires very easily and can't walk any distance that said she is working part time as a radiographer (still!) and managed a healthy pregnancy with me....it was difficult&i came a little early! She found there were ups&downs and the symptoms during pregnancy were worse, but they were not bad the entire time. I hope you have plenty of suport and are getting the rest you need...physio were great with the arm weaknes and balance issues.....

Really, just wana say i'm thinking of you, and bubs hun. x x x x

I'm so sorry sweetie. I am very lucky. My MS seems to have gone into and stayed in remission with this pregnancy. Hopefully your Neuro can see you and get you feeling a bit better. I know it's a lot to deal with being pregnant and having MS symptoms.
