Sleep isnt happening. (ah...the joys of oral prednisone...hope the IVSM isnt as bad)

I just discovered the fickleness of the MS. It's weird what the MS will screw up, and what it'll allow to stay normal. My left arm is numb, yet the left side of a certain part of my chest is not numb...however, a certain part of the right side of my chest is numb (really numb) yet my right arm is not numb. Weeeeird! (I do have a little tingle in the right hand tho)

I feel like I'm either wearing very thick diving pants, or I've got some sort of bizzare chastity belt pantsuit on that is so long that it goes down over my toes. I literally feel like there is something belted or tied across my waist and going down to my toes. Some strange feeling, very thick pants with bootie slippers. Like there are ropes wrapping around my ankles and thick heavy boots on my feet. We wont even go into what it feels like those numb parts of my chest are "wearing". MS is weird! (and irritating, and painful...and itchy! argh!)

I'm so tired, but my brain wont sleep. I keep having to get up and move around because I'm uncomfortable, so that's screwing with my sleep too. I changed my signature tonight because I thought that Murphy's Law was appropriate for what's going on in my life/house this month.

I guess I'll go take another late night shower in the hopes that I'll get my IVSM in the morning. Maybe the benadryl I took for the itching might kick in.
