Default :(

I had my PT evaluation today. I have moderate weakness and balances issues. She recommended a walker.

Well ok. I I was ok with having MS as long as I didn't look like I have MS. The walker is going to give it away.

I am going to get a good one. One with breaks, large wheels, and a seat! I have a terrible time out shopping because I need to find a place to sit down.

I find a bath room just so I can go sit down!

I have exercises to do and another appointment in two weeks. I like in a quad level house. Not good. Feel down the steps two weeks ago.

I bent over to pick something up the other day and fell forward. I know I was going down so I did so easily.

Seeing double a lot these past few days. My MS doctor knows this is going on. He has changed some of my meds and I just talked to them again today.

My concern is my lower body strength has never returned to normal after my first episode of ON. They say I am RRMS but I worry and wonder about that. I am SO tired even with Provigil.
