MS without the high dose Biotin

MS without the high dose Biotin

I haven’t taken a high dose biotin in about a 2 1/2 weeks. I have to admit there is a change. The only thing with MS, you just don’t know what the actual culprit is. I’ve been very weak in both my hip area and my thigh area. That’s causing a greater difficulty than normal getting up if I’m down on the floor. I’ve also had major fatigue again. Where I was sitting down and my eyes start closing whether…

I’m officially unpacked

I’m officially unpacked

It’s official, all my boxes are unpacked. My daughters room still has a couple, but she’ll get to them when she’s ready. For me, and God bless my aid, all mine are gone. I am never moving again. If for any reason I do I will pay the extra money to have them pack and unpack. Now it’s just a matter of organization of where I put some stuff. Changing certain places or positions of spices, pans or maybe cups….

Happy New Year-Welcome 2018

Happy New Year-Welcome 2018

Wow, that was fast year. Happy new year to everyone, have to start with that. I hope everybody had a safe and wonderful evening wherever you were. I have to be honest, I was asleep before midnight. I think this is the first time I fell asleep on New Year’s before midnight. I was always so happy to be done with the current year and hopeful that the next year would be better that I guess I had to see…

Relapsing Remitting and Secondary Progressive MS, a combination of both

Relapsing Remitting and Secondary Progressive MS, a combination of both

It’s 20 years that I’ve dealt with my multiple sclerosis. When I first started doing research on my own illness, it was stated that most people go into the second stage of the disease after about 10 years. The second stage of the disease being secondary progressive MS. Most people start off in relapsing remitting and, at the time, it was said that 80 percent of people in this stage will go into secondary progressive around that 10 year mark….

Moving stinks

Moving stinks

OK moving should come with a gigantic warning, this was horrible. I thought I was so prepared. I wasn’t! I think moving would be hard for anybody, but adding multiple sclerosis to it is just a recipe for disaster. Unfortunately, in the morning my aid was running late so that left the beginning of the day on me. I had a couple things left to pack up. I didn’t think it was gonna be a big deal, IT WAS A…

Adjusting 2 dogs to their new home

Adjusting 2 dogs to their new home

For first time ever, there really might not be a post for me tomorrow. Tomorrow is my move day. As of tomorrow, everything is going to the condo including Zoey and Marshmallow. I’m a little concerned about these two. I would’ve liked to have had them there before tomorrow but it didn’t work out. I was going to bring them over but it turns out my painter is allergic. I know for them it would’ve probably been better if they…

In my defenselessness my safety lies

In my defenselessness my safety lies

I’ve had a blog about this in the past. This is from a course in miracles, and is and always will be my favorite lesson. It was always the hardest lesson for me learn because I am the queen of defense. When someone would say something to me, I always jump to my own defense. If I felt backed into a corner, I would claw my way out. Am I cured, absolutely not, but I’m a 1000 times better. The…

Have a very happy hump day

Have a very happy hump day

It’s the hump day. That middle of the week where it’s all downhill to Friday. I’ve been up since roughly 5:30 this morning. I’m exhausted. I couldn’t sleep. I should change that, I couldn’t fall back to sleep. Not sleeping is like an instant bad day with MS. I just wrote the ticket for the day. Not that I could’ve controlled it, I just know how my body is when I don’t sleep. My daughter was up all night studying…

Searching for an answer

I blog every day. However I have to admit, some days I have no idea what to say. I just start writing and whatever comes out, comes out. I ended up putting a title on it at the very end. Today is one of those days. I can write about packing and how tired I am, but I think I’ve expressed that I’m about 8 blog posts already. I made an appointment with my neurologist on Thursday to discuss what…

I’m getting stressed, can I get this done?

I’m getting stressed, can I get this done?

Started the day off with a fall. Nothing serious, I just a tripped over something. Couldn’t regain my balance and down I went. I think I tripped over a sweatshirt. It was nice that as I was lying on the floor, and both my dogs looked over at me. My little puppy even came off the bed to check to see if I was OK. Never the way I’d like to start the morning. Have to be honest, the stress…
