2. Set the list aside and try your darndest to relax and not think about[b] all the possible things that could be wrong with you and that you have all these problems (like Rhonda suggested). I tried...
I know that you had questions about[b] optic neuritis (maybe not in this post but somewhere else). I think someone answered you as to how it felt for them but I thought that I would chime in as...
I haven't been posting much lately but I have been reading and keeping up with all of you. Has anyone had experience with this. I thought that typically optic neuritis only affected one eye? [b] the...
Sorry, I haven't posted in a while but I thought that I would pass this along. Someone just sent it to me today and I found it helpful and meaningful. Perhaps it will be helpful to some of you as...

I have a question for those of you out there who have optic neuritis or have had it. I have been battling a bout of ON for the past 8 months. It improved initially with steroid treatment (oral) and...
I am with you all in limboland. Worst part is that my GP says that I have MS. My neuro-opthomalogist says I have MS but my neurologist says that I'm crazy. Well...alright not exactly, but that is...
That was just what I needed to read this morning. I couldn't sleep at all last night and I have been sitting here fretting over whether or not I am going to have the energy to make it through...
Thank you for the reply. I have thought about a second opinion but I am discouraged and am thinking I will just let it sit for a while. What are some of the other causes of ON? I have only been told...
