If You Could Totally Remove One Symptom.......
 
......what would it be? The numbness, the spasticity, the balance issues, vision issues, the "bathroom" issues? There are more, I'm certain, but these are just the ones that come to mind first for me.

It can only be one so really think about it. ;)

The Migraines for sure!!

I think mine would be the numbness. I'd love to be able to write a letter or send cards again. My penmanship is terrible now that my right hand and arm is numb. On the bright side......I'm learning how to write with my left hand! :) And it's challenging!

The blindness! I have so many days when it feels like someone smeared vaseline on my glasses. I would love to keep picking off sx, but I would start with that one.

I went back and added "vision" to the list of issues. It's a big one for me, too. I'm not sure if mine is age related or MS related.....or a little of both. :rolleyes: ON really stinks!

Gait......

SallyC 12-18-2010 10:23 AM

The weakness in my legs. I can walk with the numbness but the weakness puts me in a scooter if I want to go anywhere.

Spasticity -- it is painful and affects my ability to walk/gait.

Definitely take what it's done to my eyes & kick it to the curb :rolleyes:. The muscles controlling my left eye no longer work as well as they should, so that eye doesn't track well with the right eye. It makes me see double if I look to the right, and dizzy always. Yep...It's not just cuz I'm blonde. :D

I would be thrilled to have a bm like a healthy person. To actually feel the natural signal/urge to go and have my body respond appropriately. I have been dx with a 'paradoxical puborectalis' so any 'pushing' tightens me up even more instead of relaxing. I have done biofeedback to address this with very little success. My routine is less-than-ideal and I would place this above all the rest of the things that MS has caused to remove.
Wow that was really nice to daydream for a minute and express that wish

Thanks
