This is a place for all to come and ask questions concerning all aspects of MS. Please don't be shy!! My name is Mitzi. I am from northeast MS, close to Tupelo (birthplace of Elvis, thank you very much!!). I have been an OB nurse for 8 years, but while on a travel assignment this summer, I was diagnosed with what I had sucepted for a while - RRMS. I am now unable to work. I am working on my 5 exacerbation since last October, third since June 8 of this year. This one was bad, in a wheelchair. I don't feel that I get a lot of information from my neuro UNLESS I see him face to face - forget calling his office for info. It's like getting through Fort Knox. So, even though he instructed me to stay away from support groups and especially the web - I have found more help in Jooly's Forum than I could have anywhere else. I hope that my forum can become that successful in helping others. I am not trying to compete, I just wanted my own little space!!! Even though I am a nurse, I have so many questions. That's why I included the section for nurses with MS. I was so suprised to see the large number of nurses with MS that I was hoping not only to learn from them, but maybe to find out if someone knows the common factor in that high rate of MS within our occupation. But all is welcome here. Being a nurse, please note that I do have a sick sense of humor!!! I can't wait to start hearing from everyone!! Love ya and take care, Mitzi
