I remember watching Selma's interview with Robin Roberts in 2019, and it was truly heartbreaking to see her struggle to speak due to the burden of Multiple Sclerosis. It was difficult to watch. However, looking at her now, she seems to be more comfortable and confident when speaking, without any stutter. It's great to see her responding well to treatments, and I am happy for her.

I know back in the day, MS was very hard to diagnose & doctors mistakenly diagnosed it as lupus. I suffer from an autoimmune disease which is mostly chronic pain. I'm in remission now but still have other health problems bought on by the disease. Selma is very inspiring! By being vocal & an advocate, she is helping many people. I'm happy that the treatment is working for her. She seems to be doing very well. I hope for her continued success & good health!

@lillyrocks2011 Год назад

I was misdiagnosed for years despite my labwork that was showing what I have. But the doctors ignored my labs and diagnosed me with fibromyalgia 🤦🏽‍♀️ and then lupus which I don't have either. I have an autoimmune disease that's awful and worse than Lupus. I'm in Mexico ..

@lorireed5291 Год назад

As a fellow MS survivor, I commend you Selma, for your unwavering tenacity to continue your quest to find the diagnosis you had been searching for. I was diagnosed with MS back in 1990, and at that time, when the neurologist came into my hospital room to inform me, I wasn't ready for what he had to tell me. All I could picture was me in a wheel chair. Thirty three years later, I am on a drug that has kept me in remission for years. I do walk with the assistance of a cane, just as you do. So, from one survivor to another, thank you for continuing to live your truth. I look forward to reading your book that I just ordered. Much love...❤🙏🙏

Let her speak Gail!!

@gaila.6003 Год назад

My cousin had MS symptoms at 19 years old, but the doctors thought she had some kind of heart condition. It took another10 years before she was finally correctly diagnosed with MS. It has been a very difficult journey for her. Everyone with MS has different symptoms. She kept having bladder infections. It was her urologist who told her he thought she had MS, because her bladder wasn't emptying out normally. Her bladder stopped working, and she has to catheterize herself 4 times a day. She eventually needed a kidney transplant. Her feet are numb, and she sometimes has to use a cane. She's in her 50's now, and she just keeps doing the best she can.

@LLynneM Год назад

What the actual (beep) is going on with Gayle King? Why would she continue to talk over the guest, who shouldn't have to compete with a host to be heard. If Selma was at 100% it would be stressful and annoying to have to *just keep talking* to finish her thought, never mind when you're _not._ Selma took care of The Problem like a champ, but it was so unbelievably unprofessional. On a bright note, she looks heavenly and her dog is such a sweetie, taking a nap while mommy works.

@mediascribble Год назад

The worst thing when you have a long term illness (pain not withstanding) is your focus changes so much to yourself. Especially if you were already self focused. Everything you practically think, say, or do revolves around your story, dealing with symptoms, and of course going to doctors. It affects everything.
