DAG GONE IT ANYHOW! My MS symptoms won't ease up.

It has been well over a month since I posted that the evil MS bandit had me captive.... and he won't let go!! My problems still persist-- and it is really getting old. Nuerologist wants me to do the steroid treatments-- but I feel so bad during those things I wonder if it's worth it.

My speech is really draggy at times- hahaha--- great thing for a trainer.
And yesterday, I sat in the middle of the bed, trying to remember my appts. for the day. And I had just looked at my calendar a few minutes before that. :evil:

The worst is the vison issues. Most days - things just seem a "hazy" If I could get that to clear up-- life would be OK. Good thing is-- I don't always see the dust in the house! Well- good for me. Not so good when company is here! 8O

Just venting.... no big deal. Sometimes it just helps to write it down, and then forget it. :wink:

Hang in there!

Don't sweat the small stuff, especially if it is as small as dust.
In the meantime... I'm glad you can type! :D
Lori, I am so sorry to hear that you are suffering. I really wish that they could find a cure sooner than later. A friend of ours also has MS. He spends a lot of time swimming to help strengthen himself. I know he resisted going on the drugs for some time too trying to do more homeopathic treatments.

And please vent whenever you feel like it! :D
Lori, I don't have any advice for you...


Just a hug from the heart :ghug:
Lori, I don't have any advice for you...


Just a hug from the heart :ghug:
I've got nothing but warm thoughts for you as well. **hugs**

Hang in there.
Warm thoughts from me too!

Did you see that article yesterday on MSN that said that a cancer drug slows the progression of MS?

Hugs and kisses from me! This winter we're having is really having an effect on those of us with chronic neurology/muscular conditions. My fibro has been terrible.
Lori, I'm sorry to hear that you're still feeling so awful. I don't blame you for wanting to avoid the steroids - a family member has a neurological diseases and has had more long term problems from the steroids than the actual disease, Scary!

I hope you feel better soon :D
Hang in there!! it will pass as you know....until then...big hugs!!
:ghug: Hugs to you, Lori. I wish there were something more tangible I could to to help you. Feel free to vent to us anytime. :ghug:
:ghug: Big hugs to you, Lori, as you face this difficult time. We are all here for you whenever you need us. Feel free to vent away at any time. :ghug:
Sorry to hear, I have lupus so I know how terrible the steroids are. I've been on them daily for years. Prior to that I was able to do a dosage schedule similar to that used for asthma or an allergic attack. This wasn't nearly as bad as the daily regimine.
Hope you get over this flare quickly........Kathy
Lori: I am sorry to hear you are still dealing with this "out break." I had so hoped that it has subsided by now. My daughter with the CMT seems to be having a rougher time of it right now too. :ghug: Hugs to you until you get through this. :hearts:
I think the weather plays a big part in all of this....
Hi Lori,

Before I got to the end of your post, I was thinking the same thing..weather plays a big part. Hopefully the sunshine is just around the corner! I wish I could find the right words or could offer advice - just wanted you to know you're in my thoughts. :hearts:

I don't blame you in regards to questioning the steroid use. I'm wondering if you've checked out homopathic or naturapathic doctors and see if there are possible alternatives you can use?

:ghug:
:ghug: Spring is around the corner and things will get better! :kiss:
Lori, I'm sorry you're feeling so bad :( . Maybe spring will be early this year so you feel better faster.
:ghug:
