It's difficult travelling alone. As when I did go out before this virus. My legs would be very stiff when I reached my destination.

Hi, I'm Kelly and I have rrms. I haven't received a government letter about isolating but I'm doing so anyway. Does anyone know where I stand regarding work and getting any sick pay etc?

I spoke to my GP surgery, MS nurse and my boss yesterday. The gps and ms nurses can't write a note as it has to be the one from the government. My boss spoke to her accountant and can't pay me sick pay. She is, however, trying to have me furloughed. This will be amazing if I can be. I'll keep you updated.

Hi lovely to meet you. Yes it's so frustrating. There are drugs out there that help with walking. I've been refused. I'd love to know why. Only ever had pre gablin or steroids. Other people seem to be on a variety of drugs. Once your secondary your forgotten

Hello dear members,
While the Coronavirus epidemic concerns many across the UK (and Carenity members too), I've created this discussion to allow you to talk specifically about the virus in the context of cancer, as we all know that patients can be weakened by their treatments.
Have you had any special instructions from your doctor regarding your care? Are you going to limit your travel? Do you have any advice for others?
Take care,
Courtney
