The multiple sclerosis has been a HUGE MONSTER/MESS for me, which began the end of August (after my bf broke up with me)when I was hospitalized for a few days. I got better, almost to my baseline with MS. I did typically what I did daily and then soon after I moved in with my bf who shortly became my fiance' I had another flare and stayed in the hospital a few days. This was only one week before our wedding!! My legs did get better, but the pain from the flare was horrible! The left side of my face, neck, shoulder, and arm was messed up from pain and weakness :(
I did move in with mother since my ms is getting worse, for the extra help since I cannot do much. This was never what I planned in life and when I think about it, all of the hurts so much emotionally :'(
The day after I was released from the hospital, I went to the pain clinic to get my pain under control. My pain medications was increased and so was Lyrica. Since these adjustments, I have felt better regarding the pain. I although have fallen a few times, memory is fading, breathing problems increased, increased weakness in legs/arms, and I'm sure that I'm forgetting to add something here! Hehe
December 18th Chad Case and I were married here at home with a Christmas theme and it was beautiful. Well, except for me! I was puffy from all the steroids!!

Thanks so much for posting this. I was diagnosed in1997. I have had many days that were a struggle...I've never been strong enough (emotionally) to let everyone know how great the struggle has been. Hats off to you!
