Thanks.

Me, too, Friend2U. Even my kids (who live with me) don't have a clue. I can't really blame them......but then again, I can, because everyone at my house has the ability to access the Internet and look things up. Apparently there's time to look up YouTube videos and download ITunes.....but no time to read up on MS. My new reply to any questions about MS......"Google it".

Default Progression??
I describe recouping from a flare like this:

Like a bouncing ball that does not come up as high as it once was........

Otherwise; I do not come completely back to where I was before.

I strongly recommend that you at least call this in to your neuro, tracking your symptoms is very important to the overall treatment your neuro can offer you.

Having had both neuropathic pain and profound numbness, I can tell you for sure, the pain is no picnic and I hope it doesn't come to that for you.

Like Cherie pointed out, many MS patients have relapses that put symptoms into action on a temporary basis. Sometimes, after a relapse, those symptoms remain, in smaller proportions.

When/if the SP factor appears to be the case, the relapses cease for the most part and a slower, steadier decline takes over. Not all RR patients become SP patients.

The buzzing sensation in your neck is probably L'hermittes and it is pronounced, luh-herm-i-tease by the three doctors with whom I've discussed it.

Thanks for the advice! I do see that I really need to tell the neuro everything and not try to determine for him what he needs to know!

That's a good way to describe it. That bouncing ball of mine seems to be deflating a little every time it hits the floor. Bummer!

I skipped the tingling step, went right to pain in my head, and THEN the tingling began.

Next thing you know I'll be putting my clothing on backwards in the morning.. oh wait, I've been guilty of that already!

I agree, that was a great article. My numbness has been from fingertips to my head, and constant for 2 years now. The worse sx is the severe itching but that is relieved with meds.
