feel like I am on the spin cycle this week!
Started out by falling and hitting my face...gave myself a fracture on the cheekbone...then I had to head to the neuro and he sent me to the hospital for Solumedrol infusions, and the week end is barely here!
I am just caught in the middle of the MS spin cycle!
Dealing with numbness, and Optic Neuritis, and L'Hermittes and more numbness on the other side...wow...just dealing and depending on Jesus to be my strength!

" thank you for being encouraging. I appreciate that alot!
I have completed two of the infusions, but I went back tonight to see if there was anything wrong, as the slint in my wrist/arm is bleeding. The nurse cleaned it up. flushed it, but said it was still good. So, I am trying to make it through one more night and then I have to go back in tomorrrow to finish this episode.
Again, thanks for the encouragement!

" Sorry you are going through the ms spin. I hope the drip helps you recover quicker. I have always had to have the drip/bung/slint bandaged so that it doesnt pop out of the vein or bleed, might be good to get that done another time.
Try to take time to rest & I hope your cheek heals quickly & that you recuperate quick too.
Gentle hugs "
