Default neuro on vacation

Had to call the neuro today - legs are full of spasticity - Buzzing down my neck & back is back (L'Mittes?) - tongue & half of face is numb..... so tired and pain in my legs.

Neuro is on vacation till Tuesday but I did speak to her nurse and she had me call my PCP - she had me increased my Baclofen to 80 mg a day - make sure I take my Darvocet tonight and call her in the morning to let her know how I am. The nurse at Neuro told me that everything that is going on is all part of MS and since I have a probable this will help with the dx. I don't want a dx if this is how I am going to feel. I want to be me again.....

Just wanted to check in before going to bed. I don't feel good and I know the depression isn't helping me.... I need to get over the feeling sorry for myself. Riverwild told me I was going to have the "why me" stage - I am here. Cried coming home from class tonight...... I don't want to feel like this. Why me I asked myself and that I remembered RW and I talking about it. This really stinks (wanted to use a harsher word but know I can't)

ok, I am going to take the Darvocet and head to bed - I just hope this doesn't last long and I am better soon.

thanks for listening and letting me vent.

Oh, Char, it is hard, there is no doubt about that. But, you will get through this current hurdle because you are tough. There is a grain of wisdom from a wise woman I know, she says that, "Tough times don't last, tough people do."

Get yourself some rest and let us know how the upped dose did for you.

(((YB))) I am so sorry that you are not feeling well. With a definite diagnosis you will run a gamut of emotions. Always remember that we are here for you to help you through this. I am glad you took the time to post how you are feeling. I think that is great.

Take care, get some rest and "post us" in the morning.

awww... bummer yb... it really does stink when you are reminded that ms has a mind of its own...

even after the dx, there is still the "i can't believe this is happening to me" dh replies, "i believe it"
