I went upstairs, and my parents were still asleep (it was 7am) and I decided not to wake them, so instead of going back downstairs (on the noisy stair lifty elevator thing we have) I stayed up there. Sat in my mom's chair which is one of those made for handicap people. Electronic controls to lay you back, and when you get up, push the button, and it lifts you to a near standing position. It's a very comfortable chair, even after my mom slept in it for a year after breaking her shoulder.
My parents have a couple of down filled small throw blankets up there. I grabbed one, and tried to sleep. My dad got up about 20 minutes later, and I was still wide awake.
He came out into the living room and sat on the couch and went back to sleep. I think listening to my dad sleeping, and comfyness of my mom's chair helped me to fall asleep for two hours until the cable guy showed up.
nothing is any worse except that I feel like I'm trying to walk on the moving deck of an old time clipper ship or something, and there's a hurricane going on.
I took my last antibiotic this morning and right now I feel like I just got another uti. Keep having to go potty. I'm hoping that's because I've been sucking down water all week and I'm just trying to get rid of the extra. OR I'm hoping this is a side effect to the antibiotic.
I am so tired and wobbly and I want to get my hair cut and go rollator shopping. But, I'm so tired.
This MS crap is really starting to suck. I want to send it back to wherever it came from. I dont like it at all. I want my old normal life and real body back.
