My doctor knows of some of my problems but I haven't seen him since March. I'm going to have to get in to see him though as some of my issues are getting worse. I've done PT and OT in the past when I had some pretty bad relapses. It helped some but I think I just learned how to do things my own way to make them work. I will check out some ergonomic seating for my desk. There has to be some relief out there I'm sure. As far as getting through the holidays I'm sure I'll figure that out too. All of that is still pretty new to me, so it'll just take some adjustment being alone. I'm getting good at it lol

I do wonder though, of anyone has trouble sleeping? I have pretty bad fatigue but I still have a hard time falling and staying asleep. I have a lot of nightmares so I understand why but I'm starting to wonder just how tired I have to be to get a good night sleep lol

Pinky I don't know wow many employess at your work place but I thought the American disabilities act took care of your employer making sure you had adequate seating.

When an employee works in the place of business yes they do take care of providing the correct office equipment. (Or they are supposed to). However, I work from home so I have to provide my own desk and seating. They only give me my computers. I am very thankful for that because right now I use two computers for my job, and several of us are trying to talk my employer into giving us a third monitor. (It's no wonder my eyes are bad and I constantly have a headache LOL)

My neurologist wrote a letter stating that I can only work 40 hours a week and no more. I was told in order for this to go through I must open a FMLA claim and my neurologist has to submit it through there and try to get it approved. So, I will have to deal with sitting at a desk for 50 hours a week until it gets approved. I know that doesn't sound like any big deal... It's just sitting while I work. But wow does it hurt! My MS doesn't seem to like if I sit or stand for any length of time and it's making my spasticity much worse, as I'm sure many of you understand and deal with the same thing.

All I keep telling myself is that I have to keep pushing through. Things are bound to get better eventually, right?

Have you ever tried sitting on an exercise ball. Some swear it helps, my daughter, but I can't quite get it coordinated

I have tried an exercise ball yes. However I find it very uncomfortable and my lower back is so bad and my legs so weak I have a hard time with it. My coordination is not do good either, and I kind of just topple right over a lot lol.I need to find a good office chair. The search has been on for some time now, and eventually I'll find one.

I will be calling and opening an FMLA case tomorrow so that my neurologists work restrictions can start being looked into and hopefully approved.

Thanksgiving actually turned out OK. After my daughters left this morning my roommate took me with him to his families house for dinner so I didn't have to be alone after all. I hope all of you had a good holiday.
