There's a thread on the forum somewhere, you'll probably have to search for it, where we were all thinking up different ways to describe the symptoms of MS.

We made up an imaginary symptom man (cant remember what we called him now) and then devised how to give him the symptoms of MS....duct taping flippers to his feet, making him wear glasses with the wrong Rx in them that are smeared with vaseline and covered in stuff so he couldnt see. The thread went for quite a while.

I swear, anyone who thinks that MS "isnt that bad" needs to be strapped into the Symptom Suit for a week or two and also given liberal applications of novocaine in their extremities to simulate numbness. I know a few people this week who could use a month or so in the Symptom Suit as punishment for irritating me while I've been floating around in this stupid flare.

Can you tell I'm grumpy? and it's not just the IVSM and the prednisone taper that's making me nuts. (houseguests still. will. not. leave. ARGGGH!!!)
