Hi, I'm Kelly Irvin. I was diagnosed with primary lateral sclerosis in November 2015 and ovarian cancer in January 2016. The latter has taken a front seat on the health front but now that I've further along in my treatment I'm back to thinking about PLS and those ramifications. I see an excellent neurologist who is director of the regional ALS Clinic in South Texas so I feel blessed to have top notch medical care. That doesn't keep me from feeling frustrated over their responses "don't fatigue muscles," "conserve energy," "eat more," etc., when I was an extremely active, healthy person only a year ago. Looking forward to seeing how others cope. Thanks.
