Today has been GREAT!! :Head-Spin:

Been ridin' high since yesterday's visit to the new neuro..

woohoo!!
A man who seems to talk some sense... "Well, if you feel worse on the rebif... we'll stop." totally matter-of-fact... he was also curious why liver enzymes were never checked... I'm to stay with my weekly visits to the chiropractor and begin PT to try and improve my decidedly drunken-looking walk...

so now waiting for the Copaxone to arrive... in his opinion, I'm just not an interferon kinda girl... if copaxone doesn't work, I'm qualified for guinea pig status in one of his studies...

and, oh BTW, he's about a minute older than me and SOOOO easy to look at!! cute & smart!! (so this drama DOES come with a few silver linings...:winky:)

:Wave-Hello: Hello everyone.

This is the third week of the UTI and I'm now on Septra. What really sucks is not only do I have the pain and everything else that comes with a UTI but I also have the lovely MS symptom of vibrations and tingling in that area.....can it get any more fun :icon_rolleyes:

I have no energy at this point and I'm getting frustrated. The new carpet should be at the store this week which means we're getting close to having it installed and I am no where near having the house ready :eek:

I got my hair CUT...so what you all say...she has short hair. Well, I have been letting the back of my hair grow. It was down past my shoulders. It's GONE. All gone. Yeah! H took a look at me when I got home...hmmm, he says. That's all. :p

And, I have been lax with getting my hair colored...yep...I am blonde, but lots of gray has been creeping in so as of last night...the gray is gone and I am my ol' blonde self again!

P.S. I was completely sober when I did this!


So... FG??? Do blondes REALLY have more fun?? Glad you're feeling like your old self. Who were you B4 you were Cheryl??? ha!

Oh and about being sober~~ OK, if you say so..... :ROTFLMAO::ROTFLMAO:

PS: Bet your'e still cute either way.

So absolutely thrilled for you a great doc and some eye candy too. :Dancing-Chilli: Let's all do the happy dance with Bethany. It's wonderful news. Thanks for sharing, I was needing a pick me up today. :hug:

Yep, 'tis good news indeed! Bethany!

I'm wigging out a little bit right now. Okay, I'm nervous, my right hand developed a strange new numb patch this afternoon, I'm just hoping and praying that this isn't the beginning of something much bigger. I can't deal with the thought of a major attack, I haven't had one in a few years.

I hope I'm just tired and stressed about things, and that the heat got to me today, and that it will be gone in the morning.

I've been missing you, girlie! Man, take it easy and hire a couple temps to help you move things around for the installers. There is no way that you need to be doing a bunch of physical work right now, LA.

Take care of yourself, okay?

Hang in there... I'm right there with ya hoping that it's just the heat-- maybe some tired and small bit o' stress thrown in for good measure???

...all the fingers & toes are crossed for you!

DM,

You've got a great attitude yourself, and you crack me up in your antics with the other young'uns around here! :D

That is so good to know, Wiz, good news is always such a welcome retreat from the daily grind. You have got the magic bullet with that Ty and it rocks!:)

Uh, dm, that's not a lamp, it's an Ionic Breeze.

:) Thanks Cin,

I'm keeping my fingers crossed that Ty will work well for me. :) I read your update about trying LDN too, I hope it works great for you.

Hi Bethany, It sounds like you hit the jackpot with your new doctor! :)

LeeAnn,

I hope you feel better soon, I'm sorry about the UTI. :( I suffer with those if I have it for two days, let alone hanging on for awhile. I hope all will go well with the carpeting, at least you'll have the end result to look forward to. :hug:

Yippee yay!

Small changes, getting ME back again! Baby steps. :)

P.S. I was completely sober when I did this!

I'm impressed Cheryl. :) Nothing can make you feel better faster than a nice cut and color. I just had mine done tonight, even the atmosphere of the hair salon is a lift for me.

My DD did that...she is in total MS remission (no symptoms). I thinks it's the LDN, but she thinks, "It's Mind over Matter. She keeps taking the LDN for insurance, but doesn't think it's doing anything. To her, the MS is no longer there.:confused: As her Mama, I hope she's right.

Congrats Wiz, you are a trooper.:hug:

Thanks Sally,

I hope and pray your daughter is in a permanent remission. She's lucky to have a sweetie like you for her Mom. :hug:

I hope it's just the heat Cin. Try to rest and keep cool, and I'll send some good vibes your way. :hug:
