We Are #MightyTogether

If you or a loved one have recently been diagnosed with multiple sclerosis (MS), you may not know where to begin. Learning as much as you can about MS and getting answers to common questions can help you feel confident and in control of your health.

The New to MS: Navigating Your Journey virtual program gives you the opportunity to learn and connect with others who are also new to MS and navigating their own journeys. This program offers information about MS and symptoms, how to manage MS, and living well with MS. There will be opportunities to engage with other attendees, ask questions of a healthcare professional, and share your own experiences.

#MultipleSclerosis #MightyTogether

Functional Neurological Disorder (FND) is a complex condition that affects the brain and nervous system and how they interact with each other. This debilitating condition affects the functioning of the brain and nervous system resulting in ‘signals’ sent from one being interrupted or not received by the other and vice versa. For example, in my case, the brain sends a ‘message’ to my leg for my leg to move however my leg does not receive this message, so it does not move; likewise, my brain does not receive signals from my leg, so my brain does not register things such as the sensation of my leg being touched. As FND affects the functioning of the brain and nervous system it can cause a wide range of symptoms that varies from person to person and can affect any part of the body and how it functions.
