Cancelled and Heartbroken

My neurologist said no surgery for me for at least 3 months. At that time I will have an MRI to make sure the MS has settled down and my body wil be strong enough to endure the procedure. I am so disappointed but also know that I can't risk causing bigger problems for myself.

Thanks for all your support! I will be following your posts and can't wait to hear how you all do. Hopefully I will be back in 3 months with better news!

All the best!

Thanks! I hope you will see me on here before the end of the year with a new date to get to the flat side!

So sad for you :( on the positive side now you can devote the next 3 months to those last few pounds and get even more amazing results when you do go in... I know that doesn't make it easier but your time will come!!

Thanks for the kind words! I will definitely work on losing some more weight. Since I won't be on the flat side as soon as I thought I have to focus on the positive side and beat this MS.

Devastated????

BRandTT
I had a hard day. I went to my neurosurgeon's office and saw the nurse practitioner. She did not think I should have the surgery while I am having a MS symptom just incase my body might not handle the stress. She was going to get a second opinion from my actual neurosurgeon tomorrow morning. I am just 17 days away. This has been a crazy roller coaster ride. I am starting to think someone is sending me signs. My face is still numb and the nurse said it will hopefully resolve on its own. Please pray the best thing happens whatever that is.

I'll keep my fingers crossed for you. It will all work out how it supposed too whether you have your TT in Aug or sept or whenever. Try not to stress too much (especially if that makes it worse) keep us posted. Good luck!!

I love your comment it will all work out how it's supposed to! I asked my Aunt to pray for me once that I got a job I wanted. She replied I will pray the right thing happens! I thought that was a weird answer until a long time after when I realized although I didn't get the job the right thing happened and better opportunities game my way!

Hi there...hope this roller coaster settles down for you..sincere wishes! I'm sure when you have your surgery you will do great! Will think of you! Best wishes..

Surgery Scheduled again for Aug 8, now my MS is flaring up because of stress.

I have MS but have never had any problems at all until last week. I think the stress from the anticipation and then the cancellation of my surgery has brought this on. I have numbness on the left side of my face. My dr prescribed steroids but that is not helping. Tomorrow I have an appointment with my neurologist. I am nervous what he will say about me going through with the surgery. Please pray I can go on a heavier dose of steroids and get the feeling back in my face and also be given the all clear for my surgery.
