I am envious of your neuro Debbie. It sounds as if he is really understanding. Maybe I need to move to N IL.
I just called my neuros office as this baclofen taper is pretty tough. I guess it must have been helping my spasticity a bit as it is getting more and more difficult to walk. I am also dealing with nausea, dizziness, and that sandy foot feeling (grabbing hold of things when I am walking plus using my cane). Of course my neuro was not in the office today. So his nurse was going to talk to the neuro on call to see if I can start taking a low dose of zanaflex while tapering off of the baclofen. I am just going to teach my 10:00 class and then i am going home. Canceled my pt appointment. On a more positive note, it is beautiful here today. |

Hey everyone. I have a friend who is recently diagnosed with ms and is 22 years old. She signed up here and I started a thread for her. Can you help me welcome her here?

Debbie, totally agree. Your neuro sounds like a keeper!
![]() Barb, hope they find the right med combo that helps you out. ![]() ![]() ~~~~ Three phone calls later and pulling teeth, I've got an appointment with the NP for tuesday. Whew! The neurology department strongly perfers going over results in person. The guy I got this time around was really nice. He apologized since he's worked there the longest and most don't remember that the NP does most of the follow-ups and any emergency things like flares and such. Knocking on wood she's as good as the one at my old neuro. ![]() So ready for a nap now, lol! Enjoy the weekend everyone! P.S. Broke the two minute mark on the elliptical. It was only by a couple of seconds, but every little victory counts. ![]()

Good Morning sleepyheads! Where is everyone? I am having a typical Saturday morning -- doing laundry, went to the drugstore and grocery store. Now I am just planning on reading and watching Memphis Beat which I recorded.
While every step I take is painful, at least I am still walking. I did not hear back from my neuro's office. Calling on a Friday is never a good idea ![]() Hope you all are having a good day. ![]() Jenn -- Congrat's on breaking your record! |

Morning all! I had yesterday off and had my nails done, also went to the gym for a 20 minute workout. It seems that's about all I get, 20-30 minutes a few times a week but while I'm there I work really hard on the rowing machine trying to get my heart rate up high enough.
I work the next four days then have two off next week. The fatigue really gets to me about mid day and I can feel myself fading but I stick it out. I try to drink a cold glass of water to wake me up. The Nuvigil is a God send for me. It doesn't require that I keep increasing the dose like Provigil did. It's fabulous! ![]() I better hit the shower now and get to work. Have a good weekend dear friends. ![]() ![]() ![]()
