Default Attention AMN !!!

I have been wondering, and I'm sure others here have also.....How is your Bot Foot working? Is your mobility still much improved because of it?

We hear about your new improved *Joe*, but how about *BOT*?..

Uh, yes, it's working but I'm having a lot of trouble with back spasms just now and haven't been using it much lately. I will be taking it out later today, as a matter of fact. I usually go out with it every other day or so.

The weather has cooled substantially and stiffness is playing a lot of tricks on my legs & back. Frankly, it has me a bit nervous.

The coffee's most excellent, thank you.

Sal....she's got to spend as much time with Joe as she does with Bot.....otherwise there will be jealousy (you know how men can be). I think the solution is to go out with them together. Take Joe (in a cup) along on an outing with Bot. After all, Joe was there first. Bot will just have to adapt.

Sorry your getting spasms AMN.

I just got back from the MS neuro's office. He said that the change of seasons really plays havoc with MS, especially fall and spring. We went from weather in the 70s here and warm sunny days to 50s with a lot of clouds and chilly so I'm hoping that's causing my extremely worse fatigue and blahness. I got two new RXs and need to change another.

I hope it's something like that causing the spasms and that you'll be feeling better soon.

Thanks, everyone, I don't think this was supposed to turn into a pity party, but hey, what can I tell you? It is taking me literally 10-15 minutes to find a way to get out of bed in the mornings (try that when you're about to pee your pants), I've even been setting my clock for a 4:00am mega-dose of Zanaflex.

I do think the sudden drop in temps with high humidity is partly to blame— I hope that's it, I'm trying to avoid a Bac-pump.

The redeeming factor in all this grounded time has been Ken Burns's National Parks on PBS, I have watched the whole thing twice all week, and also at PBS.org where they'll have it streaming until Oct. 9.

It is super fun for me to compare my own pics with the ones taken at the turn of the last century and know exactly where they were shot. What an amazing buzz that has given me!

Oh! RW & Lambchop, our pic on the rocks is in there too (we're not, just the rocks in the lake! *smacks*).

I even went back through the pics to show the man that it was the same pic! I was yelling out loud! "It's the BUBBLES!"

(he thinks I am nuts too yanno)

I missed a couple of the episodes but I am sure they will be replaying this series. I wish I had high speed internet!!!
