I have another thread that is really helpful by all your input. But I have been wondering,
I seem to take advantage of my good feeling when the med is in me and enables me to do stuff I couldn't do before. But then I hurt later for it and wish I could up my meds myself. I do stabilize but I wonder if that is why I need to have my meds upped by the Doc? Do we eventually get numb to the medication? Is it false Hope? I know I have to appreciate what I have, but I really want a heads up to these kinds of things.
Thanks for your comments.

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
This ia a balancing act ,because on those bad days if I just lay around and do nothing,it takes me longer to recover from them.So I have come to realize when I have to stop. And on those good days...well we just don't get enough of those do we? So relax and enjoy them.
