Susan, JanH here. First of all, thank goodness you
found this group because you definitely need 'someone
who's been there' to talk to. The people in this group are
great to listen and offer you suggestions that have aided
them. And, there are people who, like you, are wondering
if MS is in their future. Sharing your thoughts (and fears)
should take some of the stress out of your life!

I can tell you that stress does affect tm symptoms--and what
in years past would not be stressful, now is!! The fatigue you
mentioned and the fact that you can't do as much are also
tm factors. Time management is important to living with tm
and without it stress levels jump up rapidly. I hope that the job
situation is resolved for you and your hubby soon. Dealing with
tm can be a fulltime job without the other problems.

Think positively and know that all of us in this group are sending
you positive strokes and prayers for you and your hubby. Let us
know how you are doing and ask anything you need an answer to,
someone will have a response that is helpful. We care!
