- I'm a prolific poster these days. Usually a sign that things are on the downward slant. I've been having a lot of hot flashes. These come on really fast and go away within 5-10 minutes. I sweat. I get irritable. I can't get to somewhere...
- So, last night I was at a friend's house in a rural area and decided to drive home after dark. I'm not familiar with the area or the drive. It was a rough one. I couldn't see the lines on the road. I couldn't see what was coming up ahead. The signs...
- Does anyone's body rock constantly when they are trying to sit still? Drives me crazy. I notice it the most when I'm sitting on my front porch smoking (yes, I know I should quit) with nothing to lean up against. My body constantly and...
- I'm never sure when to call my neuro. I've been fatigued, experiencing some slight blurry vision, mild dizziness, numb toes, fingertips, etc. All things that have happened before and tend to happen now if I'm overdoing it or getting sick. New...
- When did you realize or come to terms with the fact that you have MS? Was it after your diagnosis?I ask because I have CIS. (http://www.nationalmssociety.org/about-multiple-sclerosis/what-we-know-about-ms/diagnosing-ms/cis/index.aspx) For those of...
- I don't stop in much any more but I have my 6 month follow up MRI today at 11:30 and an appointment with my neuro at 3 o clock. Got me to thinking about all of you. I hope everyone is doing as well as is humanly possible and that you all had a...
- I've been mostly quit since the first week in January. I've gained 20+ pounds in less than 2 months. The sad part is, I'm not really eating any more than I did before. How do I stop this? I have never weighed this much before in my entire life...
- I hate this. I hate the false sense of everything is ok when it's not. This disease is slowly changing me. So slow that it's almost unnoticeable to others but I can feel it. First, things are blurry but only at night, ok well, sometimes during the...
- Ok, this is really random. When I was a small child (5 or 6 maybe) I had a period of time where I would hallucinate music that wasn't really there. I always just assumed it was a weird/crazy kid thing. Anyway, read a story today about a woman who...
- :) And I think I'm here to stay. After repeatedly messing up I had one of those, "I'm breaking down, look at ME! I'm breaking down, please tell me you want me to smoke! You quit but I'm different and totally can't do this, please tell me to...
- To the Lupus group today to ask their opinions. Before the docs thought I had MS, they thought I had Lupus. Now I'm pretty sure I've developed the characteristic malar rash. It's hard to capture in a photo but check out the link. I have a red...
- Good morning! I'm popping in from the MS group. I'm in limboland like I'm sure many of you are too. I've been "tested for lupus" and other autoimmune diseases twice over the last two years. The first round of tests were negative with a slightly...
- Just wanted to stop in and say hi! I'm still determined to be a quitter but I've had some occasional setbacks so I don't feel right taking the pledge or doing the roll call. The good news is I've successfully not smoked 800 cigarettes since New...
- My LIPS!!! My lips are smooth!!!! I must have been continuously burning them or something. (And then going outside repeatedly in the freezing cold and wind...I'm sure that didn't help!) I'm amazed. My ANXIETY!!! My anxiety is almost gone!!!! I...
- So, I'm on day 7 and I'm coughing up clear mucus but it's got a bunch of brown flecks in it. Doesn't look at all like blood and I feel fine. It is gross though. Question is, is it normal? And when do I get it checked out?
