Clipboard and pen

Incredible how two innocent, innocuous items can give someone so much power,confidence and authority.

Take this morning, 6.55am, hammering on my front door!
I waited to make sure i wasn't still asleep and dreaming, but no, there it was again. By the time it took me to get out of bed,find my dressing gown and get to the door there had only...
My GP finally diagnosed a bladder infection (mainly because I thought it might be) and prescribed me some antibiotics. They seem to have done the trick and my mood seems to be pretty much back to normal. At least it was, until this morning, when I had to go back to the GP for the results of my bone density test (done a month or so ago). Now she...

Learning to Adapt

I have been continuing my attempts to rejuvenate some very old rush bottom chairs. Two weeks ago saw a disastrous occurrence. I had been scraping off the old varnish when I took an unexpected fall of the MS variety. I landed with unerring accuracy straight across the one I was working on. It broke my fall, which was useful, but in the process...
Guilty as charged !

Let me explain a little.

Some of you will be aware of a blog I posted a few months ago, about listening to our body's and, more importantly, listening to our 'MS lodger'......

I have failed to listen for several reasons,

1) my lovely 92 year old Mother in Law manged to fall down her flight of stairs. She...

Infusion Number 2.

Infusion Number 2.

I had my second infusion on Tuesday. It all went smoothly. Ididn’t get that fog descending over me this time, and I didn’t feel extra tiredof flu like after either. Am very glad to have the second one out the way as itis the second one that has the highest risk of allergic reaction. I think thatnext time I won’t have to wait...

MELBOURNE researchers may have found a way to block the progression of multiple sclerosis (MS).

Blocking a specific protein responsible for nerve damage acted as a hand brake to progression of the disease, researchers...

A dream life

Last night I had a dream. I went to 'my other life' – my dream life.

I have this recurring dream; where I go to a place which is so familiar to me I know it really well. I always get there by bus, get off at the top of a hill and walk down and turn left into a big museum. It's a huge building – partly circular where the entrance...

Annual Meltdown

I was going to post this in "The Lounge" but decided to Blog it as a reminder to me when the next meltdown occurs!

On Friday morning I had a meltdown and spent the entire duration of an hour long conference call (thankfully there were no webcams involved!) and some time afterwards in tears. Not sobbing hysterics but a constant...

Update on my LDN treatment

I have been taking LDN for a month now and I am not feeling any improvement in my symptoms in fact I have felt really unwell. Maybe Christmas has taken it's toll on me with all the socializing,eating too much rubbish and drinking too much alcohol just the norm for most people but with MS it's not good! I am hoping that now i'ts all...

Copaxone

Can anyone tell me if omitting a day or two of injecting will be dangerous ie:- maybe miss every 3rd day, I am new to this and now living in spain and dont have full understanding of the language, i cant seem to get the point across very well
Hi Everyone

I made my first forum post tonight. Bit of a messy start. Had no idea how to post properly, same with this blog thingy...

I was blown away to have replies of support and acceptance before i'd finished even editing my first post. WOW! I am so glad to have found this place and hope to make lots of new firends, chat with peolpe...
Christmas is nearly here again - is it all too much, too soon? I loved Christmas as a child, I still do, but times change and so does life as well.

According to the TV, the magazines and the shops, we should all be out there spending our hard earned cash as fast as we can. If we don't, we are not doing enough and Christmas will be no good. We...

Cognitive tests

Seen a Neuro Psychologist twice now and will have one more session before I get results.Anyone had these tests and if so can the resulting therapy help?

MRI results...

I got my MRI results today so I suppose I should be cheerful, they have come back with not enough evidence to diagnose me with MS. I now however have to have a lumber puncture.

Am I going mad, I have the symptoms, so why is the MRI not diagnosed me? Is this common or am I the only one who has the symptoms but no proof?...

My first feelings.

It has been 6 weeks and two days since my diagnosis 04/10/2011 when I was shocked by my Neurologists words you have MS. I felt so numb inside. To this day I hope that she is wrong, the reason being Im waiting for my results for my MRI, which I should recieve in the next coming weeks. I am dreading it, as that will be a 100% confirmation I have...

The Plan

I have a plan! I like a plan! A nice long chat with my neuro on Monday and the plan was hatched. This after I stumbled my way into Reception, tripped and lunged at poor unsuspecting Receptionist and in front of many spectators. I have an appt with the Neurologist I say. Thank goodness, thinks the audience.

Anyway I digress,...
Well, I've just got back from my appointment at the vascular surgery to scan the arteries in my neck.
Neuro decided that it was tiny blood clots getting to my brain that was causing these bright spots on my noggin.
Scan took 20 minutes and I was very pleased to hear that everything was indeed very healthy and normal.
Another test done and now...

Another (not so) bright idea

I've had an unbelievable crop of tomatoes this year. From five plants (Balcony Magic for the record) I've had 16 1/2 lb not including the ones that didn't make it to the scales thanks to three boys (ok and their Nanna :think: ) insisting on tasting them for quality control purposes!
Because they've done so well, I had the...
