MS Stuff...

OK - first some MS stuff...  We all know it absolutely sucks to have MS - and to put up with the ever changing tide of symptoms we seem to experience.  One of the most frustrating things I'm dealing with is trying to determine if things going on with the body is MS related - or not.  I never know what to ask the doctor about - and what to just ignore - know what I mean?  I definitely don't want to become a person that when asked 'how are you doing?' goes into a 15 minutes long diatribe about various aches/pains/spasms, etc. - and so I will admit that there are likely things I should talk to the doctor about that I don't... My brother gets completely & totally upset with me when he doesn't think that I'm giving him enough accurate updates on how I'm doing.  I'm not sure he completely understands though... when a person hurts 99% of the time - they get accustomed to that pain... the more I dwell on the things that hurt or cause discomfort - the more hurt or discomfort I feel.  Does that make any sort of sense? Might be odd logic - but it makes sense to me...


May your week be healthy - and pain free! :)
