  • Jamie-Lynn Sigler Explains Some of the Frustration of Multiple Sclerosis Diagnosis

    Jamie-Lynn Sigler of The Sopranos fame was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis 15 years ago, but only went public with it following her wedding to Cutter Dykstra a week ago.

    She spoke with Maria Menounos in recent days about the autoimmune disease, explaining that it comes with a variety of frustrations.

    “For six years my symptoms in the disease for me have been stable,” Jamie-Lynn Sigler explains. “I actually went to my doctor about three months ago for a check-up, and he said, ‘You know, if you came in today I wouldn’t diagnose you with M.S.”

    Jamie-Lynn says that although most believe “that would be something really exciting to hear,” it actually “frustrated her.”

    “Because I still feel it and I still feel like things are wrong,” she says. “They’re not right…while that’s great news and encouraging for my doctor to say, I think a lot of people with M.S…you feel really misunderstood.”

    Multiple sclerosis is one of those illnesses that, during times of remission, patients are sometimes accused of “faking it.” It’s a disease that doesn’t often display easily recognizable symptoms.

    “You don’t want to complain all the time,” Jamie-Lynn Sigler continues, “and you don’t want to share all the things that you’re feeling. But the truth is, you’re never really comfortable in your body cause it’s not normal.”

    Kudos to Jamie-Lynn Sigler for sharing her M.S. diagnosis. By going public about it, and sharing issues like the one she described to Maria Menounos, she might raise further awareness about the illness. She also might help others with M.S. open up and talk about how the disease affects them.

    Some of the symptoms of multiple sclerosis include fatigue, numbness or tingling of the face or extremities, weakness, dizziness or vertigo, pain, emotional changes, bladder problems, walking difficulties and more.

The two recently did an interview with US Weekly where they introduced their handsome little boy to the world. Meet their first-born child: two-month old Beau Kyle. Sigler revealed her glowing sentiments of motherhood. “It’s such an overwhelming feeling of responsibility, of love, of fear, of everything,” Sigler says of her new role as a mother. She also said she gets, “how they say you will never know what love is until you have a child.” According to US Weekly, Sigler endured a grueling 36 hours of labor before she finally laid eyes on her 8lb 4oz bundle of joy. Beau Kyle was born Aug. 28 at 3:53pm in Los Angeles.

  • Jamie-Lynn Sigler Engaged To Baseball Player

    Jamie-Lynn Sigler, who most of us will always remember fondly as Meadow Soprano, is engaged to ballplayer Cutter Dykstra.

    The couple–who have been together about a year–announced the happy news on Twitter, along with a photo of the new rock taking up residence on Sigler’s left hand. This will be the second marriage for 31-year old Sigler; she was formerly married to her manager, A.J. Discala. The two divorced in 2005.

    The pair were introduced by mutual friends last year and hit it off despite their 8-year age difference.

    Would Tony Soprano approve?

    Well, at least he’s a New Yorker.

    Sigler, who made her mark in television with her portrayal of Meadow Soprano on the hit HBO series, is reportedly now dating Cutter Dykstra of the Washington Nationals. Despite their age difference–he’s 22, she’s 30–things seem to be going well after the pair were introduced by mutual friends.

    Oddly enough, Cutter’s father Lenny–a former Met–has been in the news recently with a story that sounds like something from a Sopranos episode; he and two accomplices were charged with trying to “lease and then sell high-end cars from several auto dealerships by claiming credit through a phony business“, which earned him three years in state prison.
