That's a post that only people with MS would understand. When you have unexplained symtoms and think that you might have a brain tumour, then MS diagnosis isn't that bad.

Happy Christmas everyone. As every day passes it becomes clearer and clearer that BlueSky is how social media should be done. It's not perfect and I'm not sure how they will make it pay, but it is night-and-day better than the other place.
