I went to the doctor today.

He didn't draw blood this time. Said he wanted to wait til next week for some reason. Think he wants to see if I can get the b12 up in my system a little more. I told him that the neuro wanted to check some stuff. Couldn't exactly remember what he said tho. (brain foggy)

I told him that the neuro had wanted me to talk to him about getting some IVSM. He didn't really want to do that. (he's got a lot of experience with MS, his dad AND his maternal grandmother both have/had MS) He gave me a Rx of oral steroids. It's just for the week. Doesn't look like it's a long Rx. There's only 30 pills in the bottle. (it's 4 pills x 3days, then 3 x 3days, then 2 x 3 days, then 1 x 3 days) He wanted me to start it this afternoon, but we didn't get the Rx from the pharmacy till almost 7pm. So, I'm waiting till morning to start them.

Kind of glad that it's just a $5 bottle of prednisone. I really don't have the money to go to an infusion center and get hooked up. Plus getting a full blast dose of IVSM does not sound like the thing to do when we're doing a remodel in my house. Especially since my bedroom will be one of the rooms getting remodeled.

What's irritating me right now is my right leg keeps doing a twitch. That's driving me nuts! Seems to be only doing it when I'm sitting. But, I sit a lot. Argh!

I still don't feel good. Also, there's been a potty issue that's had me wondering what is going on. (going on as in not going) but I think I figured out that potty issue. I haven't been eating all that much. Since not much is going in, not much will be coming out. So I kind of feel better about that now that I've made that connection. My dad told me, that I usually only eat half of what I'm served. If that. I didn't think I was eating that little. But, I think he's right. I also really only eat once a day lately. So this might explain a few things. (the weight loss, the not feeling good, the feeling weak, the potty issue)

At least I'm drinking water/fluids.

I'm just so tired. I don't want to do anything. My boyfriend might be coming over tomorrow. (said he was going to last week) I don't think we're going to the movies. Probably just go get something to eat with my parents, and then come back here to watch movies. I just want to talk to someone that isn't my parents. I'm bored.
