    About Me

    I am 46 years old, have had MS for 28 years. I am ambulatory with an AFO on right foot. Work full time and have a great boss that lets me take time off when needed. I basically enjoy my life to the fullest, but have had some treatable heart problems as of late..wondering if related to Betaseron..joined to find others that may have similar problems and just looking to meet others like me.

    Interests

    Shopping, traveling, entertaining, going out with the gals for cocktails, watching movies and reality tv.
