I'm sorry you're struggling. Could it be the change in seasons/weather that's causing your flare ups? I know mine do when the weather turns cooler in the Fall. The humidity also does bad things to me.

Sometimes it seems like a never-ending game with MS. Just as soon as we get to the point of being able to tolerate a certain symptom.....another one pops up but the first one doesn't go away. Sometimes I just want to scream "Enough!".

I hope things get a easier for you and that your symptoms ease up for you. If there's anyone who can lend a hand let them help with the housework. Accepting help isn't a sign of weakness or giving up....you're just giving someone else a chance to help you out and to feel good about doing something for others.

Yes, our weather was beautiful, then it rained for two days and now it's beautiful again. That is really difficult for me.

Exactly! That is just how I feel!

My husband told the kids that if they help me with the house he will give them some money (they are 4 and 6 years old, so there's not too much they can do) so they will try at least. Then when he gets off work, if he has time in between every thing else he is doing, he will help as well.

Thank you for the kind words, I'm sure I will be fine, I just needed to vent. But I may end up calling my neuro if this gets any worse.

Hey News, I think you should call the Doc. You could be having an exacerbation and if it's bad enough, then a dose of IVSM may help.

I hope you feel better real soon..

Thank you Sally. If I call the doctor the only thing she's going to do for me is giving something for symptoms if she can. I can't do IVSM unfortunately. But thanks again.
