Well, you don't need to feel like a failure, Snoodles. After all, YOU know your body better than THEY do, even if they'd like you to believe otherwise. Sure, it sounds like a great idea going holistic, but you don't want to feel worse, for goodness sake!

I just feel so bad that you tried so hard and it didn't work. Doesn't mean that YOU failed -- just that your body failed to respond to an unfamiliar treatment. It obviously wanted the Imitrex!

Now then, about that stiffness -- would a massage help? I would get you into massage therapy ASAP! Good luck, sweetie. It's not you, it's the stupid MS. And no, you didn't choose to have that. We understand and are pulling for you. Rah Rah Snoodles! Kick 'em in the Caboodles!
