Sorry I've been MIA
 

Hey everyone, I'm sorry I haven't been active in so long....

Mood-wise I'm holding my own, aside from "irritability" when I'm overly tired.

Health-wise I've been better. I've been absolutely exhausted and haven't been able to keep up with things. Fatigue and MS symptoms continue to worsen. Also still dealing with "lady problems."

The wide-spread pain and low-grade fevers returned, so I guess it wasn't the Tysabri after all. I saw my MS neuro last week and I restarted Tysabri and had an MRI that (LONG) day. I hope that I'll at least see some relief from fatigue.

I hope that everyone is doing alright. I'm going to try to catch up.

Dear Kay,
It is good to hear from you.

Thanks to all :grouphug:

We got about 20 inches of snow Wednesday, and they really didn't clean up until yesterday. I was plowed in pretty high on all 4 sides. I really wish my husband moved my car when he left in the morning.
So, I fell, but it was into the snow. I feel I've been hit by a mac truck today, but on the bright side, I'm just bruised and didn't have a serious injury :)

2 ladies came to help me. One was able to clear the snow away from my door so I could get in and get my scraper and shovel, but she had to get to work. Then, just as I was about to cry, a young lady from upstairs came to help me dig out. It makes me feel good to know that there are good people out there- even if they just offer, or ask if I'm okay. But I feel weak knowing that I need that help now.

Hi Kay welcome back.

sorry about the snowy incident. i am glad there were nice folks around to help. but yeah it is hard, that feeling of dependent on the kindness of others.

i hope the medical picture starts lookign brghter for you this year.

and i hope you find some unexpected treasures along the way.

Good news for a change!!!

My PT says I'm doing great with my pool exercises :)
and I can actually feel some hamstring muscles developing :)

Come Hell or high water, I'm starting land PT Thursday! I hope I see some good results for that as well...
The better shape I get in, the better I'll be able to handle the inevitable increases in disability.

However, I think I'm on my way UP again... Restlessness, racing thoughts. :confused: Hopefully it's just heightened anxiety due to overdrawn checking account (w/ consequences) and TAXES. In the way of BP, I guess I'll find out soon.

Kay

P.S. I'm almost caught up on my reading here :)

i hope the PT works well! :)

yeah it is hard to tell in the beginning... hypomania is sneaky.....

pad pad pad. pad pad... POUNCE!!! :eek: heheh! ;)
