When I attempt to take my dog for a walk, she actually walks me. I am on rebif even though I hate needles. I tried Nuvigil for fatigue but that didn't work. I can't remember the last time I had a good night's sleep. Does anyone belong to a NMSS support group? I have thought about trying one.  |
Hi MG. Sorry to hear about your dx. I wish I had positive feedback on your balance and stumbling. There is really no good answer.
as for rebif. I hate needles too. I no longer use a DMD but I had a diabetic friend so I asked her which body part did she use since she had to shoot med many times a day. She told me stomach. It was not easy to try my soft underbelly! But it has the most fat. It really was a good place and plenty of spots too.
I medicate my sleep! I am an old lady and truly, I love my sleep! There are plenty of things to try first before drugs though. Lots of people here to answer your questions.
