I hate feeling so good one day, and then feeling lousy the next! I was doing so good last week, then insomnia hit, then horrible lower back pain and left leg pain, and now fatigue!!! I try so hard to be uplifting and joyful, but today, i'm just feeling icky! I walk like a turtle! I keep taking Aleve and Baclafen, but it doesn't seem to be helping at all! When something like this happens should I go to the hospital? I keep thinking I should, I can go to my doctor, but he will only give me pain pills (I hate taking more pills!) I haven't heard nothing back on my tests, or anything about a neuro appointment! I just feel like I should just get over this already, I'll never be diagnosed, so just suck it up and go on back to my "normal" life! Pretend none of this has even happened. I'm so sorry, i'm having a fit. Lord forgive me for being weak, forgive me for not giving it all to You.

Sherie, it\'s o.k. to have down day\'s, even Jesus did! You will always be forgiven, YOU ARE HIS CHILD!!! I don\'t think going to the hospital would help, just cause bills you don\'t need. They\'d probably just give you pain pills too. Why do you have to wait on a neuro appt? Push your Dr, you\'ve waited long enough! I\'d call him, maybe he could at least give you something to help you sleep. I hope & pray your answers come to you soon. And that you can get some sleep, your immune system is already compromised, don\'t want you sick on top of everything else. Lovve ya, Peg.
dont\' feel bad about having a fit. it\'s really hard to be sick and suspect that there isn\'t much that will happen in your favor. i feel for you. i\'ll be sending positive thoughts your way :)
Sherie its alright there are alot of days I feel like I should be giving it all to the Lord and I just cant...HUGS!!
Just remember when I am weak, He is strong.I also try to remember that everyday isn\'t going to be a great day so when it is enjoy and rejoice and when it isn\'t know that this to shall pass.
I am with you.Remember it took 10 different doctors before I was DXD.Keep your chin up and remember we are here for you if you need us.
Are you in an HMO? Why don\'t you just find a neurologist and go? No offense to your doc, but I think you should have already been referred! Have they done a spinal tap? You are definitely in an \"attack\" if it is MS.....the spinal fluid would give you an answer? I\'m a lawyer, do you want me to call your doctor???? I can\'t really do that because I don\'t represent you, but you don\'t even know what is wrong....it could be something even more serious than MS (i.e. life threatening!) Ok, now I\'m having a fit on your behalf! Sorry. I just want you to understand what is going on.
Sherie, I think everyone is entitled to a little time to vent. It has nowhere to go if you don\'t get it out -- it will just keep recirculating inside you unless you set it free. This is a good place for that! I hope you decided to get in touch with your doctor. I hope relief is soon for you.
You guys are all so wonderful. . .how many times can I say thank you until you get sick of hearing it? THANK YOU! I\'m on medi-cal, that\'s what\'s taking so long. I did call my doctors office today and asked for my test results and when my appointment with a neuro is, they said they\'d call me back with the info. . . no call yet. I\'ll call again tomorrow. Thanx again guys for all the support!
It is tough Sherrie and I think most if not all of us have felt this way before at one time or another! It is frustrating that sometimes we got to take day by day because we never know what kind of day it is going to be. We just got to keep the HOPE that tomorrow will always be better and try to stay positive and look back on the good day you had before and pray that tomorrow will be a better one just like the day before!! Sometimes easier said then done I know but what can it hurt? Got to make the most of our days! Don\'t feel bad or apologize we are all entitled to bad days and good venting can sure help!I pray that you get the answers soon and that you start having more good days in a row then bad!!! Hang in there!!
Hugs,
Michelle
