I remember the clonidine was effective when tried it a couple of times for intrusive thoughts, but I didn't notice any effect on my general anxiety yesterday.

My anxiety isn't quite as high this morning
I took 1mg of Klonopin, and am much more comfortable. I can handle THIS level of anxiety

I finally called to make an appointment with my neuro. The medical secretary said they were booking in July (I already have an appointment in June), but when she asked what was going on, she gave me an appointment for today at 4:30. I have to start making a list of things I want to discuss and hopefully by the time the appointment comes around, I will have remembered everything. My anxiety may be down because I finally took step to address some of the issues that have been plaguing me even though I might not like the answers. IDK.

The timing of the appointment is awful for me though because I'm usually sleeping. I'm worried about taking a nap because I sleep so long and it's so ****ing hard to wake me up. And I'm worried about not taking a nap because I don't know what kind of condition I'll be in if I don't, and I have to drive.

I haven't had to clean any cat puke since Monday night (knock on wood)… I think that is a recent record. The cats will be 100% on the new food today and I hope things continue to go well…

Also, I stopped spraying the Felaway a while ago, but have a diffuser still plugged into an outlet in the bedroom. I'm keeping up with clipping their nails too, and they're still not scratching the furniture!

He ordered a MRI. I think my copay is $250 though and I'm pretty sure I owe the company money. I will begrudgingly pay the copay, but if they want me to pay the whole balance before the MRI, I don't know if I'll be having one even though I need it.

I haven't had one in 2 years, so IF I have one, he'll be looking for changes since the last one. But he'll really be looking for signs that I may be having a relapse too- not that anything will be done about it. Treatment for relapses is IV steroids, which I can't take because they induce mania. But if I am having an episode at least there would be hope that there could be some improvement…

He can't do anything about the fatigue and cognitive issues. The meds that could helps are off limits for the same reason I can't take the steroids. I've tried all of those too with the same results.

Friday and Saturday night I had really bad night sweats and was sweating all day Sunday (I'm usually cold). I had them before and after the surgery.. a day or two at a time, not associated with a daytime fever, and the only other symptom I had is I felt like ****. I didn't mention them to the neuro because honestly I forgot about them because I can't remember **** anymore. They could be caused by the MS, so I will drop him a note, but I should see my PCP to rule other things out. As far as that goes, I feel fine this morning.

My husband is being a totally unsympathetic ***hole. He thinks I have a bad attitude and am being miserable. It's probably because I am miserable. I've been having a really hard time for about a month, and really didn't need the developments over the weekend to make matters worse…

I'm worried. I don't know what the hell's going on
