Thank you ladies
I love you too, Bizi (((HUGS)))

I can do most things I'm used to doing/want to do now, but I still have some limitations. I still can't lift anything heavy without pain, and that includes Rocky and Dottie. I still can't push the vacuum either, and tried to crouch down to clean the front of the oven, and I realized quickly that that was not going to happen.

I haven't been doing a lot, but I've been very tired, so I have been napping most days. I walked through CVS yesterday and it was difficult. I don't know if it was just because I haven't been getting out enough or if something is going on with my MS, or both.

I have a couple of errands to run today. I can't drag my heels like I normally do. I know I will need a nap, so I will have to get home early enough to do that.

So, unfortunately, I won't be able to catch up on the forum- at least this morning. It takes me forever to do it.

Kay

You seem to be forgetting you had major and I mean major surgery.
It honestly takes more than 4 weeks to recover. And you can't
get back to being a super Kay right away even after 4 weeks.

I am thinking if you keep working at it and take slow trips out.
And I don't mean slow while your out. Just take a few stops
at a time. And then when you are walking get a little done.

I think you need to remember your special, and that you need
to take it slow. Let Corey continue to do some things for you.

Most of the time, I really don't feel like I had surgery at all. It's like I've forgotten all about it already. I know that's weird. And the BR issues seem somehow separate to me. THAT has my attention.

There is definitely something funky going on with the MS. I can tell by the way I'm walking, and when I came home yesterday I had a hard time lifting my feet up when I was going up the stairs. I've also been dropping things. I broke the cats' water bowl yesterday and it broke into a million pieces. I've had these symptoms before (except for a new muscle that's spasming in my left leg), so maybe they are flaring up for some reason and this isn't a true relapse? That could be wishful thinking.

We had Chinese food last night. I ate a lot, and got sick. I'm not feeling well this morning either, and I have to go grocery shopping at some point today...

Kay,

It's good to see your updates. You get things done while dealing with
what's in front of you.

You couldn't be more right, Mari. That's exactly what I do (when I can) so I can deal with everything without getting overwhelmed.


I waited a while yesterday for my stomach to sort itself out before I finally took an Imodium. Then I waited a little while longer before I went out and dragged my a- through the grocery store. It was difficult, but I felt safe, with the exception of tackling the stairs getting in and out of the apartment.
I should have picked up a prescription afterwards, but it was getting dark and I was too tired. I guess I'll have to do that today since I took my last pill last night. Right now, I wish I had just sucked it up and got it over with while I was out.

I decided we are skipping laundry today/this week. I don't feel well and just don't feel like doing it. We'll have a lot to do next week, but I don't care...

I feel like I need to rest.

Just look at it this way Corey will be very happy you gave you both
the break from the laundry. So just do it. I know I'm to late.

Its probably already been done, but that is good.

Have a good resting day.
