Thankfully, I've come down! Alcohol intake is down! I've decided to try to quit smoking... tho I should have given myself more time to stabilize before giving up the butts.

I got an appointment with my psychologist's 1st choice MHRN, but it's not until early September.

I saw my PCP and he gave me some samples of a prescription NSAID to help with the joint pain. It's helped a little bit, but still needs improvement. So, I called today to ask if I can increase the dose and I'm waiting to hear back.

I started a new drug (Ampyra) that's intended to help MS patients with the speed and fluidity of walking. It's knocking me out a little bit, and I'm itchy (no rash yet tho) all over. I really wanted to give this new med a chance to work, but I think I've got an allergy.

I have my Tysabri infusion on Weds. and that will knock me out for a few days...

So I'm doing okay except for the S.O.S. like $$$, medical & medication issues, and the husband. Anxiety as usual.

Tired, but okay. Thanks for asking!
