For the past few days I've found myself feeling like I'm too tired to care - about this, about that, about anything.
As I read these posts, I'm happy to learn what the potential symptoms might be, but I'm also thinking that I don't much want to wait around and see what develops.
It seems like every part of me is in jeopardy, and as I read more, I realize that I have more and more of the symptoms that I didn't even know were symptoms until I read about them - the mixed up words, the shaking hands, etc..
It scares me to death to know that any part of me could suddenly just stop working properly and that there is not way to anticipate what might happen next.
I've been trying to be optimistic - I can do it for my friends and family - but today I'm having a really hard time being optimistic for myself. I would rather curl up and die actually.

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...
I remember them, but haven't lived with most of them in over 4 1/2 years now.
But one thing I know, MS is NEVER boring. You can never get bored with it, you never know what twinge you'll get at any given time. How long they last is another issue.
I've asked my doctors about LDN and both are looking into it - though neither was convinced just by our discussion.
twenty years with almost completely alternative measures. Never taken the modifying drugs & have much to say about what I do. For me the approach has to be like a fight & not passive.
Just waiting will drive you crazy.
