By with pregnancy did you mean post delivery?

My neurologist first suspected MS because some symptoms appeared three to four months postpartum both times around.  During pregnancy I felt great.

Greetings Clairbear and welcome to this wonderful community.  Ess is right about pregnancy and MS - it usually quiets the system.  

I'll watch for more information from you - in the meantime, welcome again!

Welcome to our MS forum. We're glad you've joined.

It's quite unusual for MS symptoms to be worse during pregnancy. Usually the opposite happens, because our immune systems have to let up then, to accommodate a little one who shares only half of our genes.

Could you tell us a bit more about what tests you've had and what doctors you've seen?
