Starting PT tomorrow and 3days of IVSM starting Wednesday. Hope the IV stuff works for something. Otherwise guess IM just SOL for now. Dont know what the PT will do but it can not hurt, so Ill give it a shot. Thought Id give the Copax a shot too for awhile, but now my 2nd reaction has halted that method. The 2nd reaction was no wheres near as bad as 1st but enough for me to say quits.

Have to discuss now some other alternatives to Copax, with Neuro. Probably not alot can be done being PPMS, but who knows really. Think I need a vacation soon, but not like Twinkletoes lol.

Yeah, jmiller, it's best not to "trip on your trip."

Sorry the Copax didn't work out for you. Hope the PT and IVSM help you feel and do better.

I wonder if y'all got bit by a tick up in Momma's tree? Mebbe that's yer problem?!!

Well I thought I ate all them ticks. How is momma anyway, swhe must be afraid of me lol. Wait til I get some of em steroids Ill be stronger than her grits.

Here's hoping everything goes well with your MS cocktail.

COOL beans for the PT, VA approved me to have PT, OT and aquatic therapy at a place close to home. Before I had to go 120 miles rd trip 3 times a week and they paid me a big 3.56 for the rd trip. With the big van I think thats enough to turn the key maybe.

Tomorrow is the 3 days of IVSM, they said 1 1/2 hrs each time. Any suggestions on maybe side effects? Or just a piece of cake, no problems"?

IVSM -- I've only had one 3-day dose. Makes you hungry, so make sure your cupboards are full!

I hear good things about PT and IVSM, but while munchies get me all the time, enjoy that but watch out for 'roid rage. You've beenknown to go up trees and do other stuff anyway!!!!!!!!!

Of course, TT's been known to shoot at people. Think it was 'roid rage?

Well have to say I was pretty darn excited about 430am this morning, I laid down and about a half hr later got up with a couple amazing changes. I was able to open my right hand out straight, 1st time in over a year and some of the numbness let up in my face and head. Now lets see what happens later tonight after round 2 of roids.

As far as hunger goes, nothing there. The mood swings have been none, think you need to be a red head, ooops forgot ur a reddy kicker lol. The only side effects I had so far are the lack of sleep and rapid heart beat. If thats all I have to worry about then its worth it if this works. Im a stressless person so guess thats a big help, I dont worry about anything everyone else worries for me.

Nah, that wuz jmiller-rage! (Don't like being called an ole ladie, even if it's true!!!)

You can open your hand??? That's very cool! You'll need it to climb up the nearest tree next time I see you in Momma's yard!
