Ive been diagnosed with multiple sclerosis during my 3rd month of recovery, alcoholism.
my obvious symptoms were migranes....every day for 2 months. My nurologist asked if i experienced any other symptoms that were bothering me. I said, "I was drunk, how would i know whats normal?"
She then ordered an MRI. When I brought it back, there was a lot of "hmmm" and OHHH's"
She pointed out all the "leigions" on my brain. I asked if that was normal. She said, umm, no! You might have ms. multiple sclerosis.
Months after getting over that fact, i have faced a lot of other physical factors; extreme fatigue,severe body pain and on-going staph infections.
I almost lost my job that i was at for almost 7 years because of the absenteeism, my re-occuring staph infections. My boss, thought i was missing work maybe perhaps ive lapsed back into my drinking. He told me if i miss one more day, im GONE!
I didnt blame him, but that really, really hurt. I went on line and asked other people if its legal to get fired for having multiple sclerosis, being absent alot.....Then something hit me.....
Im STILL looking for approvals of other people! Going on the computer and only excepting what I want to hear!
If it wasnt for MS, and sad to say,..my boss, I wouldnt of made it this far. Having multiple sclerosis made me a much stronger person. Emotionally and spiritually.
I am going to college for marketng management. I would have never belived i can do that. All the struggles you go through in life is for a reason. Theres a huge reward at the end. I want to tell people that who dont belive that theres a reason for there struggles in life. Im not sure if this is supposed to be considered as a blog, but, if anyone has had an experience that changed there life dramatically, let me know. Id love tohear.
