Welcome, Laura, we are happy to have you. I have many friends with MS and
many issues are similar with SCI and MS. I know we are happy to share
information.



Have a great day!

Hi all,

I guess I should post an introduction. I'm Laura and I live in Edmonton,
Alberta. I just turned 31 and have been stuck in the hospital and away from
my two young daughters since March 15.

I guess I should say that I do not have an SCI. I have multiple sclerosis
and either my condition has evolved into the secondary-progressive form, or
I have TM. I went to the Emergency in March for pain-control for back spasms
and steroids and couldn't walk sincre I got there. I'm now waiting for a
neuro-rehab bed at the hospital next door.

I hope you guys don't mind me on the list...being essentially paralysed, I'm
hoping that this would be a good place to swap info...even from the rehab.
Point of view, it seems like I've already been lumped in there with the SCI
crowd.

Well im 6 week pregnant and im L2 incomplete and i can walk some with braces
and a walker...But im a little worried. One of my concerns is being weighed
every visit not being able to stand by myself. Well if anyone can give me
some advice that would be great!
