Hi, I'm Tonya. I was diagnosed with MS in November of 2010 after optic neuritis stole my left eye. I found an awesome neurologist and I'm doing pretty well. I was on Avonex for a while but the flu-like side effects were nasty, and after an MRI showed a pretty severe plaque on my spine, I switched to Tysabri. My latest MRI showed no new or active spots, and I'm physically doing great. I take Vitamin D drops and I'm on Zoloft for depression.

I made a new year's resolution to improve my life, and one of my main goals is to get into better shape and eat more healthy. I need to keep myself in the best shape I can be in!

I was glad to find a group of MSers. :)

I am a wife of almost 8 years and a mother to Joshua (7) and Isabella (4). I stay home with my kids, which is enough of a full time job for me at this time!

So, HI! I look forward to meeting you all!

    Hi Tonya nice to meet you! This is a nice little group so far. Feel free to add me as a friend. I was diagnosed in March 2011 and so far so good. I love MFP and have found it to be the best way to stay on top of my weight and health in general. I guess it's what you make of it ;). Welcome!
