I have M.S. and a serious blood clotting disorder should I get into another relationship?

I was w/ someone for 8 yrs. after 4 I started getting sick It started w/little things my arms feeling heavy and tingly,my legs always feeling like they weighed 100lbs a piece and felt like they had rubber bands rapped around them. Before I knew it I was walking w/ canes then a wheelchair .One day I woke up and couldn't get out of bed, needless to say it lead to a two month stint of being bed ridden. Because my ins. sucked they misdiagnosed me and told me I had fybromyalgia. Meanwhile at 42 I had my first heart attack as all thi was going on my old man was coming around less and less. I gave him 150%. And he repaid me by telling me he couldn't stand to see me like this because he loved me so much (cop out I would say.) Any way I don't go to bars nor do I get out much .I did meet someone who told me he would stick by me and he could handle my illneses but guess what,yeah. I should say my symptoms are far worse now ,mini strokes,dbl vision,tremors.do I even try gain?

I really think you should, yes there is a risk because its hard for someone that has never went through it to know what its like. Just before starting a relationship make sure they understand how it is going to be. For personal experience (I have a Chiari Malformation, if youve never heard of it, it almost mimics MS, and a few other disorders that limit me ) I know its hard, Im only 18 and Iv lost friends from it - who wants to be around a sick person? But believe it or not there are guys out there that will really care, and deal with it... No matter how hard it gets. But dont give up on it yet : )

I hope everything gets better for you.
