    Love the title.

    That's much more common than people realize. Some people never have any symptoms. Others like you have a bunch of neuro changes. Glad they could diagnosis it.

    You are an inspiration and look awesome. Glad you got your life back!

    I am so very happy they found what was wrong and were able to fix you up again. You most certainly are an inspiration in spirit, courage and strength. Thank you for sharing with us, you're right that it's all relative and compared to your journey mine is small potatoes! :flowerforyou: On top of your new health, you look FANTASTIC!

    I just had to jump in here with my congratulations on your weight loss success and terrific decision making regarding food choices along the way. You do look absolutely amazing but the strength you have inside you to meet life "head on" and beat whatever tries to get in your way is phenomenal. Your story is an incredibly inspiring one and certainly puts our weight loss trials into perspective, at least for me. I thank you for sharing and God bless.

    Way to go, girl! One issue I would have is: what's with all the bloodwork?? couldn't the idiot docs see there were neuro issues. Ahhh, the profile answers it all... 'US Medical system - MRI tests too expensive, drawing blood is so much cheaper' even repeatedly!
