My mom has a bad cold right now...not sure if she has the flu. She tends to overdramatize how ill she feels when she gets sick (which thankfully is not often)
My dad and I are both in mortal fear of getting the flu. I'm worried because I dont want it to tick off the MS Trolls in my brain. My dad is worried because he just got diagnosed with a serious heart condition...he's terrified that he'll get it and it'll kill him. Hopefully my mom just has a basic cold. My dad has been giving her Zicam. (Zicam, I've read, is not good for people with MS...not sure why, it's got something to do with Zinc) I might call my doctor tomorrow and see if he can score me some Tamiflu just in case I get sick. (hopefully enough for me and my dad) |

Well, I went to the doctor today. He said I have bronchitis, probably viral. He thinks that the burning pain in my back could be from this infection, as well as the pain in my legs. Of course, it is possible that it could be a flare, if in fact I do have MS, he added. (I'm only Probable MS.)
Whatever it is, I pray that it's only temporary because the pain is so bad! |

I hope you all get over your sinus stuff and flu soon!
And I thought I would remind everyone to sneeze and cough in the crook of your elbow when you are not able to completely cover with tissue!!!! |
