Re: Intro (head injuries and MS?)

[Guest guest]

I fell out of a jeep in 1993 and had a severe headache for about 6 months after.

My severe MS symptoms started in 2002 a few months after I had a surgery and a major hospitalization.

THEY DO SAY THAT STRESS IS A MAJOR FACTOR IN MS SYMTOMS -

ALTHOUGH MINE WAS NOT A HEAD INJURY - I DID HAVE COMPLICATION AFTER SURGERY AND THEY THOUGHT I HAD A STROKE-

THANK GOD I DID NOT BUT PERHAPS THE STRESS CAUSED THE MS TO SURFACE

MINE WAS DX - AFTER HAVING THREE MAJOR SURGURIES - AFTER NOT RECUPING AS I SHOULD HAVE AND HAVING ADDITIONAL SYMTOMS NOT RELATED TO THE

SURGURIES - THE DR SUPECTED MS AND DID THE TEST TO CONCLUDE THE DX

I AM NOW ON SSI AND TRYING TO COPE WITH THE DX AND THE LIFE CHANGE

I never knew when I was done from the laminectomy of L5-S1, and when the MS started. I thought it ALL was MS! Vi

Hello all,

This head injury is very interesting...I did not have nothing

significant, at age 4 fell down few steps and had few stitches, at

age of 4 and 6 had meningitis, a lot of doctors whom I have seen

since 1983(my diagnosing year) think that the meningitis triggered MS

24 years later.
