My Diagnosis Story | Multiple Sclerosis RRMS | Symptoms, Procedures, Diagnosis | Malak Mahran 

I am so envious you were able to get an MRI so soon. I have been fighting for an MRI for what feels like forever. I've only just been referred to a neurologist, and god knows how long it will take after reading my referral letter 😞

I like a doctor who doesn't pussyfoot around, he was direct and to the point. I can't see what the issue is....

Hello Malak, I’d like to thank you so much for sharing your diagnosis story. It’s really unfortunate that you had the experience you did. I’ve been struggling with a number of health issues over the years and can relate. While there are many fantastic Drs out there with great bedside mannerisms, there are also many whom are just the opposite. It makes you wonder why they got into that line of work and have they always been this way? Or did they somehow become desensitized and grumpy over the years and forget the reason they decided to “help” people. Nonetheless, while I’m not glad how you were initially diagnosed and what you were diagnosed with, I am glad you did get a diagnosis and fairly early on. For me it took a number of Drs, tests and quite some time before I was diagnosed w/ Crohn’s (I also have a side of fibromyalgia, osteoarthritis and a couple other issues) which was rather frustrating to say the least. And throughout this experience I met many a cold hearted Dr. As crap as it was to get the news, I was also relieved, yet after all of that I went into a bit of a denial process. I’m happy to say after a few painful years including an emergency bowel resection, almost dying from a massive pulmonary embolism @ 15cm across into both lungs, and yet another resection for a fistula that popped out through my gut, I’m thankful to say I’m still alive and in remission from Crohn’s! While looking through your posts, I noticed you haven’t posted in about a year and I’m hoping that it’s only because life just got too busy for you and not because you’re too unwell to continue with your channel. You have a wonderful way of sharing your experiences and telling your story-I think if you are able to and still interested and willing, you should pick things up where you left off and continue to share your story with us. By now you may have married and if so, congratulations! ❤🎉 I wish you all the best with your health and endeavours. May God continue to bless you in your life. 🙏🏻🫶🏻💖💫

Thank you for sharing! We’re all here with you. 🧡

Wow such a brave and moving story! My heart definitely goes out to you for those inconsiderate doctors who really shouldn't be doctors acting like that to patients, along with the stress you were dealing with. I am in the process of being diagnosed. I'm waiting to see a neurologist on May 18. I have a slew of symptoms (too many to list along with a previous attack in 2016 that a neurologist didn't take seriously) and currently having an attack since March with no break of symptoms. I'm convinced in my heart that I do have MS. I don't know anyone in my family who has it so I'm a bit confused of the cause. I'm a bit scared for the MRI and I have really bad anxiety ( have been hospitalized more than once). My prayers go to you for being a brave warrior and finding the right treatment for you🙏😄

She sounds a little extra. God bless you. Your video is not very informative or helpful

THANKS SO MUCH! IM 56 YEARS OLD NOW! WAS 20 YEARS OLD WHEN IT STARTED! HAD A MRI. LUMBER PUNTURE! IN IRVINE SCOTLAND- THE MS CENTRE! DOC. MR MATISON! WHO DIED! VIVIEN GRAY!

THANKS 2 ALL THE TEXTS FROM ALL WITH THIS DISEASE! 😅.

I can’t even begin to imagine the horror of dealing with that doctor.. it must have been even more overwhelming than you described. You’re really strong for sharing this, I hope it helps people; I know that’s why you’re posting this in the first place ❤️

I have the same experiment with a bad doctor 😢😢

I'm happy to have found your channel ... and great to hear the textures of your story. Crazy disease for sure! Be well

I was in the ER 2 weeks ago for this stuff. I did a 90 minute MRI for brain and entire spine. I did the spinal tap and a ton of blood tests the next day. The neurologist wanted me to stay for another 5 days to see how I reacted to taking 5 doses of steroids. I had the same reaction and thought it was ridiculous to stay that long but they let me go that night. They said I had dormant demyelination in the brain but active demyelination in the spine. I didn't even know about the o-bands and proteins from the spinal tap until watching this. I'm curious to hear what treatments worked for you. My symptoms are weak legs, numbness on left side, and horrible balance.

The doctor was doing his job, you gave that much attitude because of that smh

Thank you for sharing. I was diagnosed 5 years ago but symptoms go back to my mid 20’s. I’m 48 now. Always, always take the best care of yourself. Stay strong.

Thank God for that doctor. He possibly saved your eyesight, as well as got infront of a debilitating, crippling disease.

What I would give to be able to get answers in one day. Idc if I have to do 10 MRI’s in a day. Instead people who don’t have connections are getting pushed aside for the doctors relatives. Waiting literal months or years

Thank you so much for sharing your diagnosis story! It helps even though I've had MS for over 10 years now. Wishing you all the best & keep going strong, you're amazing!

Salaam Alaikum sister … I’m in the process of figuring out if I have MS and Ramadan is coming … my doctor and I are kinda worried about fasting this year and if it will make symptoms worse but I don’t have a diagnosis yet … do you have advice for Ramadan and possibly having MS ?

ty for your story ..... its so crazy how apathetic docs can be when it comes to multiple sclerosis as they dont get the satisfaction of saying your better now ..... i like you also dont stand for minimal info .... i need to know i will be fine but i wont if I'm left in the dark it sill make me snap ....... i hope your doing better agebn ty for your story .... me my mom and both my older sisters have ms its a hard road

The thousands of people that wish they had a quick diagnosis and you had it and are bratty about SMH.

Thank you for sharing!

Love your story and personality, my experience is similar I've been diagnosed with the same cold robotic neurologists. I'm still on the fence with any drugs and such. Didn't like the big pharma drug pushers much. Suffering this is so stressful. 😔

Been looking for you videos for the longest time! I hope you and your family lol.

Sister I had the same experience, I just found out in August that I have this crazy condition too.

I am waiting for doctors to do MRI with contrast. It's taking so long. I hope you are well. You haven't upload videos in a while. Blessings dear one 🤍

Thank you for sharing this ❤..btw you are so gorgeous!

Thank you for sharing your story ❤️ it's not an easy thing to go through or go over the experience of everything that comes with it - seriously, thank you. Currently been experiencing the first solid flare-up since my diagnosis and have been nervous of going in. Hearing your experience is helping to give me the courage to go get checked out and see if it's time for DMD's/DMT's. Sending much appreciation and gratitude your way 🤗

Thank you for sharing! I felt the same way . I have NMO & my dad is a doctor too :) Trying to find your medication video & also if you can share how you managed yourself ? like did you seek therapy or any other things to accept this, please do share . Thanks again !

Thanks for this video, I was diagnosed 10 years ago and I remember this stuff too! Learning you have MS is terrible and I think you've handled it very well. I've been a self-help group leader back in my city, I was diagnosed while working in Dallas. I love your accent and your attitude towards it all. Congratulations on your engagement, sorry you lost your kitty!

Sameeeee story with MRI!!! Omg i freaked out lol i was given Xanax but didnt take it. I was drained😢

Thank you for sharing your story, you are brave young lady to deal with everything you've been dealing with, my hat's off to you. God bless you.

I admire and love you Malak, you are so freakin strong for everything you’ve overcome. I can’t imagine going through such a stressful experience, honestly so proud of you and you sharing this is going to help so many people ❤️

You’re not a doctor. Your dad is, you are not. Your expertise is not medicine and it shows. Up until the tirade I was with you. Maybe in a decade your perspective on this scenario will change. ❤

MS isn't always a big deal, I've got it and manage quite well without medication. Don't panic if diagnosed please..

Xx

Its strange sooo good habits n still we get these conditions No alcohol, no drugs, no excessive eating N YET THOSE WHO R DOING THESE THINGS R FREE OF ANY DIEAESE.....
