Bad news from Brenda tonight! I had an insulin resistance test yesterday morning, and my MRI in the afternoon. When my neuro's called and left me a message to call her back, I feared the insulin test was bad!

It shows I have a moderate level of resistance, and I'll have to come in and talk about that further. It could be good in that it will force me on a diet, possibly with medication, to get my weight and insulin under control. I was expecting as much since my dad is Type 2, I'm overweight, and I have high BP.

I was not expecting a bad MRI ! The MRI showed two more lesions and that my disease is progressing. I will be going in for an antibody test on Thursday along with seeing my neuro! I just don't get it! I don't have any symptoms other than that tingly hand and being a little wobbly with balance at times.

My mind is as good as ever! My eyes get blurrier when tired lately, but I've never been on steroids for any of this MS stuff! I wouldn't even know I had the dang disease if I didn't have the MRIs. My neuro must be worried also. He can't figure out why the disease is progressing on Ty unless I have antibodies.

What am I going to try next if I have antibodies? On Avonex, the disease progressed. Rebif, disease seemed to stabilize but I itched all over, had a patch of psoriasis that didn't go away, and was tired all the time. Neuro thought it was probably allergic reaction of some kind. I'm guessing he'll try Copaxone, but I don't know!

I'm very discouraged tonight. I thought everything was going so well, it just through me for a loop! Add stress from work and the world is not pretty tonight.
