My eyes are still feeling a bit sensitive, looked out the window earlier and regretted looking towards the sun...but the text on the computer isnt looking so strange anymore, maybe for a few minutes if I go from one room that's lit different than my bedroom is, but after a bit my eye will adjust.

I did call the eye doctor and talked to the tech, and am waiting for a call back from either the tech or the opthalmologist with an answer. But, now things dont seem so much like I need to have them looked at like I thought yesterday.

Why is it that dealing with MS symptoms is like the weather sometimes...if you dont like it, wait 20 minutes, it'll change.

The numbness is still there, but not as annoying as it was...no more burning tinglies on it at least. If the eye doctor doesnt think he needs to see me about the vision issues, I guess I'll just wait till after Xmas next week to call the neuro about the numbness. I know if I think something is an emergency and I call the neuro, his answering service WILL call him at home, and he'll call me back himself.

I'm stiff and sore today, but the numbness feels better and my eyes arent as wonky feeling as they were yesterday. I wonder if going to bed ridiculously early last night and sleeping till 10am has anything to do with me feeling not so MS-ish today? Maybe if I take a baclofen or a flexeril, the stiffness will go away?

Is it true that if you think about numbness a lot that it makes it worse?
