I’m a very big fan of Flipboard . I use it a lot, I post my blog, I read articles and I find recipes. I save all my recipes in a magazine, you could click on my recipe magazine right down the side of this blog. Yesterday I came across a great article about The Story of Multiple Sclerosis and It’s Major Milestones http://flip.it/udMksk. I just want to highlight the milestones. 1824 1st clinical description of multiple sclerosis 1868 Multiple sclerosis…
You think I ran a marathon this morning. It’s 8 o’clock, I’m exhausted. This day is not going well at all so far. It started off with in a ms issue, that I just rather not discuss. However from past blogs, I’m sure you can do your own guessing. What’s worse is im pretty sure I brought this problem on myself. I ate leftover curry soup I made. I thought the taste might be off, could veggies go bad in…
For all the bad moments, there are always good moments. I would love to say that I’m feeling a lot better, that whatever is brewing with my MS is gone, but I unfortunately can’t. However as always, I’m back to my normal, my usual somewhat positive self. I think that might have to do with the fact that my little sister is in from California and I’m seeing her today. The sun is out, although that wind is howling, but…
Over the years, a repeated cycle has always occurred when I went to an appointment with my neurologist. I would see him and a week later I would have some sort of MS problem. I would up either back at his office, on steroids or at an MRI usually all 3. Over the past week I’ve been waking up feeling like I smoked a pack of cigarettes the day before. I’ve had this feeling before but never knew what it…
http://sumo.ly/moZo I submitted a link to the biotin research/clinical study that showed that it may be helpful in people with progressive forms of multiple sclerosis. I am writing from my own perspective from taking the medicine. this excerpt is from a past blog post of mind explaining what my doctor has noticed I get a 100mg pill I take 3 times a day from Ace pharmacy https://highdosebiotin.net . I just completed my 4th month somewhere in the middle of my…
I’ve figured out the key to my feeling good everyday, or I should say as good as possible, DO NOTHING. Let everyone do everything for you so you are very rarely getting up and you could have really good days everyday. I would need to hire myself a full time assistant to do everything for me their duties would include working out every morning but transferring the benefit to me making and bringing me my cup coffee making and bringing…
I’m all packed up and ready to go. My daughter Mikayla and I are going to Florida to visit my dad and stepmom. I’m already exhausted and I haven’t even gone to the airport yet. My final morning items had to be packed all while watching the puppy. Zoey wasn’t being very cooperative to say the least. I just picked up the dog sitter now. I’m very lucky I have her. She loves my dogs almost as much as I…
Valentine’s Day weekend, 19 years ago, I was moving into the house my ex-husband and I just bought. Actually we bought the house back in December but we did work on the house so we didn’t officially move in until Valentine’s Day weekend. It was supposed to be a romantic thing first weekend in the house. I started having difficulty walking that weekend. Boxes and more boxes throughout the house. Furniture deliveries coming throughout the day that Saturday. I’m sure…
I had a Bar Mitzvah yesterday. That’s when a boy (Bat Mitzvah for a girl) turns 13 and becomes an adult in the Jewish religion. It was my 1st cousins son’s event. I was at her Bat Mitzvah 28 years before. Ok that’s one way to put the whole age thing into perspective. Dressing in simple clothes is overwhelming adding the fancy outfit and full make up…Well I gave myself plenty of time to work in stages to hopefully prevent…
This is so follow up or maybe part 2 of yesterday’s post. I’ve listen to many people and read many blogs that discuss the need for assistance devices and how they “aren’t ready”. A huge part of the progression of multiple sclerosis chips away at your personal independence. It’s a stage of the disease that affects the ego and the perception of normal or healthy. It’s when we start to look different from everyone else. When we can’t hide the…
