(I've done quite a bit of kvetching to my neuro over the last 3 months...stupid MS is picking on me!)
I just call it ATTACKS!
Cause when I`m in a bad mood Or its hot, Or I`m in a bad mood AND its hot Or I`m in a bad mood AND its hot AND I`m having an attack(gotta cover all bases) I wanna just Attack something anything! I`ve base-balled a few garden plants to death `man did that feel good`

I was also DX in 2007 Kat, and I have come to believe only we the patients understand what we feel - our bodies do talk to us
So if Mr or Ms Nero tells you otherwise you just set them straight.

Another thing I will repeat as so many here have said
We are all different or as I decided to call myself when I was diagnosed with atypical MS -
I`m special` Your special and you will figure this out, with support from this forum and keep asking questions
