An Update

 An Update: It has been far to long since my last blog, so here I am writing just for all my readers hehe :)

I first want to apologize for my last blog, it was a bit whiny and scatter brained, but I guess that's what you get when you write immediately after receiving upsetting news while the emotions and feelings are still raw.

Since my last post, I have seen a new neurologist in town Dr. T. who I'm still not thrilled with. However, I think i finally found a specialist to see me in Colorado. My first appointment is tomorrow which I am very excited about, but also nervous. The doctor and her staff came very highly recommended, but I'm trying hard not to get my hopes up.

I feel like my last two doctors didn't know how to treat me so they just kept giving me more and more steroids. the solu-medrol and prednisone make me feel worse then just going through the ms symptoms, and leave my looking like a junky with track marks up and down my arm since they can never get an IV in me easily.

I no longer work as a floral designer too, but my job at the NMSS is going great! I couldn't of asked for a better job. I'm meeting lost of new people; co-workers,  other MS'ers, and even some co-works who are also ms'ers :)

Lets see, what else? Mr. Wonderful still refuses to let me dump him, which is a good thing now that i need him to give me shots in my butt once a week :D That and the fact that I love him, among other reasons of course.

As far as symptoms go: everything is pretty much the same except I did have a spurt where the whole left side of my face went numb and I couldn't talk or close my eyes correctly. that was fun! I looked more drunk then ever! Also (Warning: Next bit of information may be TOO MUCH Information) I've been having issues holding my bladder, I swear I'm running to the bathroom 20 times a day. Like a pregnant women who is carrying a water hose for a child. i am now the proud consumer of what i like to call my "pee pills" so I can make it more then 10 minutes without having to make a mad dash to the facilities.

And on that lovely, very personal note; It's bed time for this girl.

i will do my best to write more often.
