“I have been given this product as part of a product review through the Chronic Illness Bloggers network. Although the product was a gift, all opinions in this review remain my own and I was in no way influenced by the company. “ This is the first product review I’ve ever done. I have to tell you that when I read about PillDrill, I was hoping I’d be picked to receive the product. Actually I was praying because I needed…
I wouldn’t post a recipe I haven’t either tried or was about to try. I made this recipe this afternoon with the help of my daughter. It was a little difficult for hands to whip and mash with multiple sclerosis, so I enlisted a sous chef. I must say, as I was preparing this dish, i really didn’t have high hopes. I thought it was going to taste bland. I am happy to say, I was wrong. It was really…
Zoey, the puppy, is now 6 months old. She is accident free about 95% of the time, chewing on things she shouldn’t about 95% of the time and adorable 100% of the time. I forgot how challenging it can be with a puppy because my youngest dog before her is now 8. I don’t know if this is all puppies or just her but she is obsessed with my coffee. I will have to throw my couch soon because she’s…
I had a dream last night I ate a chicken sandwich. Of all the animal products I stopped eating, chicken is the least missed. I hate chicken. I’ve lived my whole life on a diet and chicken or fish were always the lowest calorie protein. Chicken was the least expensive. I’ve had enough of chicken. I even worked in chicken restaurants, Boston Market, and Ranch 1. I hate chicken. If I was going to eat something, let it be a…
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…
Yesterday was a bad day. First my doctor visit went as expected, which was nowhere. What I mean, is that not much could be done at this point, my symptoms are treated symptomatically. He doesn’t really think that I’m experiencing an MS hug, I don’t even think he really understood what an MS hug was. He’s been my doctor for 19 years and for the first time ever, I was a little shocked. Especially since the first thing we were…
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…
Before I even start today’s blog, I need to give hug of condolences to my little sister, who put her dog Blueberry down yesterday. Blueberry now joins my Boomer over the rainbow bridge to wait for us with a few other past dogs she had. Lets once again discuss life with multiple sclerosis and its challenges. My daughter had to be in the city today to take a math placement exam for John Jay College. Since we had to be…
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…
