Hi Legzzalot,

Whilst I don't have MS (I have a chronic pain condition called Complex Regional Pain Syndrome), I certainly understand how bored you can get and also have difficulties concentrating.

I have had to take nearly 2 years out of school and am only just going back to school on a phased return (3 hours a day on a Monday, Wednesday and Friday) and also get really bored at home when I am not doing anything. Sometimes, even when I just don't feel up to it, I think it is better to get out of the house for a change of scenery and to keep me sane!!

During the time I have had off school, I have developed a hobby. I love to do card-making. It can be a bit difficult at times trying to motivate myself to do things but I find it relaxing and it is nice knowing that I am making a card for someone else that is really personal.

I know you probably wont get into a hobby straight away but if it just a suggestion for maybe if you have to have more time off work.

The main thing that I don't when I am bored and don't feel up to cardmaking, is reading on the internet lol. I spend so many hours a day on the computer even if I don't feel up to it. I have difficulties concentrating so it is hard reading books and things. I also have pets and they bring me joy and keep me company.

I hope you find something that helps you soon so that you aren't bored and i'm glad the LP went well and I hope the results come back OK - please keep us posted.
