    About Me

    I lost my job 2 years ago, then shortly after found out I had MS. I do not have many good days as the stress from financial & insurance problems & depression makes my symptons worse. I was always very active and career driven and now I am trying to find where I fit in and how I could be a productive member of society once again.

    Interests

    Watching football, playing with my 2 English Toy Spaniels and interior decorating.

      I was misdiagonsed for several yrs. Shortly after loosing my job I was diagnosed. After being on Avonex for months Anthem has changed my co-pay to $500 a month. I am now working with Biogen on financial assistance, no luck yet and I am out of injections. I was still having horrible side effects from Avonex, but I keep telling myself it could be worse.
