    About Me

    I am married, live in Canada now but did live in Florida for 11 years. Have one son who is still in florida with his girlfriend. Husband Ray is American and I am a Canadian. Live on the mountain side with a gorgeous view of the lake and mountains. I use to do real estate in Florida, but now make and sell jewelry from my home in Canada. I have had pets all through out my life so far, they are so full of unconditional love, right now I have two Ferrets, Amber and Buddha, who I spoil and treat as my babies. I think the worse habit I had was that I smoked cigarettes most of my life then gave them up 1.5 years ago after my mom passed away (she had really wanted me to quit), it was very difficult to do since I used them as my pacifer. I am a kid at heart and hope I will always remain that way. Like the natural and holistic way of things and would rather do that first than conventional medicine. People say to me I probably was a hippie chick when I was younger, well not true, but would not of minded. :) I think I have good chi...but have had health issues for various things since I can remember, I think my body puts up a good fight though, just getting a little older now and maybe having a harder time doing it now. Also I am a very curious person, and find that a lot of things interest me.

    Interests

    Love to read inspirational books like Deepak Chopra, Wayne Dyer and a few others. Like to go for walks when I can. Like to joke around, gotta laugh at life sometimes :). Love food toooo much..hehe, love animals, will watch almost anything on TV except for sports, soap operas (years ago I did watch Young and the Restless) and the news....boy am I out of touch! Love sci fi, fantasy, nonfiction like discovery, history, animal planet and National Geographic. The series LOST!!!! Big LOST FAN here! Not a big drinker, one or two drinks once in a while is fine for me...I get looped too easily (grin). When feeling good I am open to most suggestions people make for having fun! Pretty easy going. :)

      no problem...that's what we're all here for is for supporting one another. I know how frustrating it can be to not have a correct diagnosis for all your symptoms. Patience is definitely a virtue with MS...even people with obvious obvious signs have to wait so long to get DX'd not saying it's right though i wish they would diagnose it sooner and get people on treatment sooner :(

      Just thought I'd give you a hug, read your post and I can very much relate to how you feel. It took me forever to get a diagnosis, even had seizures like you, same head jerking and such. Don't give up, find a different doctor, even if it takes a long time. ~hugs~
