I am a network marketer building an MLM business from home who happens to have Multiple Sclerosis. Diagnosed in 2000, I was uneducated and completely confused on what to expect. At first it was sheer panic, then denial and finallly acceptance. Acceptance of the possibility but determined not to be defeated by it. The effects of Multiple Sclerosis vary from one person to the next. It's crucial to determine how to comfortably manage the stressors in your life so they do not exacerbate your MS symptoms. First I had to learn to give myself weekly injections. Not as bad as I thought, you do what you have to do. Then I had to learn to pace myself, much harder than I thought it would be. But, I learned to take baby steps and to make every step count. I learned that I could not walk as far or as fast as I once did. I learned to clean one room at a time, not the whole house plus laundry, cleaning the bath rooms and mopping all in one day. You see it had been my practice to set aside one day, preferably on Saturday to do all my chores. I had to learn to adapt to doing a little each day, this was an adjustment but in time it became a normal part of my life. Daily life much better now, fatigue still there but managable. I learned to set small goals, get the rest I needed, that I couldn't attend all the family gatherings. I learned to take my time by starting or leaving earlier than usual. I learned to start one thing and to finish that before starting something else. The days of multitasking are over. In building my MLM business I am taught to plan, do, review and adjust. Encouraged to find a mentor, learn the skills, set goals, take action and use the tools. Living with MS I am learning to get support, exercise, strategize, slow down and to take advantage of technology. Different verbage same message. Welcome to my world!
