Jappy, I hope you feel better soon. It's not the flu is it? Did you go to the doctor? Be careful around people during the next two seasons, for your COPD. I am glad the LDN is helping you.
Sally, I renewed and didn't get a goodie bag from Skip's. My check in: I think my relapse was over in record time, for me, 4 weeks. My brain had no changes on the MRI, but the Neuro thinks the MS hug might be a lesion on my T-spine. The Hug got bad. I don't know if I will get an MRI of that area. Let's see what the new health plan does to my Medical ins. She mentioned Nuvigil for fatigue but said she likes to wait one year before prescribing something new. I think my fatigue is better since I upped the LDN to 4.5 mg like Skip said to do. Then I asked her if she can prescribe Nuvigil, which is off label, why do I have to get the LDN from my PCP? She said we will talk about it in January. All this was done on the phone. Hmm!

Just wanted everyone to know that my episode with numb feet and legs is over! This only lasted a few weeks versus four months last time I had it (pre-LDN). I'm so excited! I never took prednisone or anything for it. All I did differently was increase my dosage of LDN from 3.0 mg to 4.5 mg. I'd tried to do that before and always got bad spasticity in my legs. This time it worked!

Great news, Kitty. My one and only attack while on LDN was MUCH easier than the two TM one's before getting on it.
Jappy, please be sure to get antibiotics if you have infection. Cheri

Cheri: I have a dr. appt. tomorrow afternoon.
I thought that I could fight this one, I was starting to feel better and today things are going down. Wish me luck that it is nothing serious. Jappy |

Doc said she believes I had the Swine Flu being I just got the reg.
flu vac. the beginning of the month. But because of my crazy immune system, she is just saying that is what it is. I did fight the worst of it. I am on antibiotics, sent me for a chest x-ray, which she called back later and all was good with the lungs. My Bronichal tubes were congested and inflamed. I was given Albuterol Inhaler for that . I was so surprised how fast I was able to talk clearer and breath better. Advised not to be amongst a lot of people and children. I was going away this coming Mon. & Tues. an overnite stay with friends at 3 casinos but I canceled out when I first got sick. My Luck. Well I saved money that's some good luck. Jappy |

Jappy, I'm glad you went to the doctor. It is so important especially this time of year with all the bugs going around.
The Swine Flu is not to fool with. Too bad you had to cancel, but that is for the best. You could pass it to others and get sicker yourself. Rest and be well soon. Kitty, the 4.5 mg is good. I am glad I upped it. Cherie told me to call Skip with a question I had, and during my talk with Skip I happened to mention I was in a relapse, he said to up the dosage to 4.5. I am so glad I did call him. I don't think I would have upped the dosage otherwise. I am glad it helped you too Kitty. Feeling better is so important to us, isn't it? Since we feel like crapola a lot of the time. I wonder what it feels like to be 100 percent normal again. I think I totally have forgotten. We get so used to these odd and weird things happening to us, besides the usual diseases popping up. Flutemaker, I hope your move works out okay for you and you don't have any problems with your MS. It is stressful indeed to move and the climate will be hotter. I hate the Winter and snow. I hope you do well in Texas. I wish you lots of luck selling your present home. Maybe the first looker will buy it. You never know. Good luck.
