A small gardening job that should have only taken about half an hour took me FIVE TIMES as long, because of my illness and poor mobility. The sheer unbelievable frustration and challenges I’m faced with every day is very wearing.

After having a Multiple Sclerosis diagnosis in 2013.. recent MRI Scans, Blood Tests and even a Lumbar Puncture have all come back clear. So what is wrong with me?

My diagnosis now seems unclear, the “Doctors” seem to think I’m somewhere between Multiple Sclerosis and Neuromyelitis Optica, a grey area as it were. In the mean time I continue to get progressively weaker almost every day with no balance, weak lower back and legs.

I’m very much at risk of falls, therefore I’ve installed security cameras outside so that my wife and I can keep a closer eye on each other.
