appointment with ms nurse went really well.she said symptons could just be because of bladder infection,which i think if i remember stumbler said as well,which could take weeks or months to get back to pre infection state.she also said it could be a relapse ,and is too early to say,and we chatted about steriods,so its a waiting game about that.we also discussed my mood.she said it could be possible damage to the frontal lobe of the brain,as i already have had tests about my cognitive ability and having cognitive therapy for that and its the same part of the brain that deals with mood,so she has written to my gp about that ,as she believes i have depression,whether or not its directly linked to the ms ,no one will really know.and finally it would be in my best intrest to start using a wheelchair,when the ms is really bad,having probs getting my head around that one !!!! thank you guys for all your support. tc xx
I have a skin infection. Also they think I have an allergy or maybe photosensitivity. Will need to be referred to Dermatologist. My mouth is full of ulcers and cannot eat and my skin is very dry, so moisturising every hour. I am on a weeks worth of steroids prednisonen and steroid cream , lots of creams and anithistamines. Other than everything is fine n dandy..lol, have to laugh or I cry. Hope you are all feeling better than I xxxxxxxxxxxxx
Hi
Have really stiff legs, and like a bruised feeling on top of left leg, does anyone else get this, I'm worried cos I'm 3 years clear of breast cancer and worry it has spread to my bones, I'm so tearful as I feel awful rang ms nurse and she isn't really say much , just to rest .

Whilst at the doctors yesterday organising bloods for Vit D, B12, iron, etc etc.... I mentioned I had written her on the blue badge form as my doc..... She mentioned they don't contact her anymore for info. (just an update - this is new and to save time and paperwork) My local council explains they are on a 10 week turnaround at the moment... 6 weeks usually. :)
Another Vit D day for us all hopefully.

i was just wondering if it is possible for ms to affect muscles in polar ways? what i mean is, sometimes the muscles in the right hand side of my body are too weak to function. and other times they are totally seized up, and i cannot straighten my leg or uncurl my fingers.
many thanks
