How ironic that this happened to me a while back but differently. I too have MS and was ready to stitch and go. Well the machine didn't run. I checked the power cord, the light was on but kept hitting the pedal. Finally I realized I wasn't hitting the table but the "foot" of the table leg!

I'm sorry to learn you have MS but I'm glad you have use of your limbs so you can enjoy sewing.

:XD: That is so funny, hope the dog wasn't hurt and has a sense of humor. I have the same problem with MS, can't even FIND the footpedal without locating it first by eye.
