MS SUCKS 2 or So it's like this...



I have Multiple sclerosis and it sure does SUCK, but what else is one to do?
Nothing?
Nah, I have a life that; should be WE have a life… that is Hubby and I.
And so I got ready within the usual time allotment to go to the gym/rehab for what’s good for me, exercise… and I am able to complete all of that stuff, totaling fifteen minutes on the arm cycle, seven and half in each direction, on the total gym, my two sets of fifty, and last but not least pulling down of the weight bar, thirty in each direction and done!…

Why not…We grab a small bite at the Cultural Center, Hubby has the Haddock with two sides, for would you believe only $5.95, and me with a half of a seafood salad sandwich and a cup of New England clam chowder, for a mere $4.95 with our own beverages…In a normal, well not so ‘normal’ going about our business day, checking the place out, their trash or treasure shops etc… and just before we were about to leave, now remember
Hubby was pushing me around in my wheelchair the whole time, when my right leg starts doing it again! 

Achy tooth like pain, within the form of a limb, with electrical impulses, numbies, and not in just one location the whole miserable leg, you name it, an enormous OUCH!  

Which is an understatement…due to it still being with me, the pain, all the way home and the only cure is lying nearly flat in bed with a pillow under it or the same in a recliner, but sitting here is not good, at all! It starts at the top of it and goes down the front and around. You see if it was in just the back of the leg I would tend to think my true sciatica was acting up, but no this is parathesia, since it encompasses the whole damn leg!
YES, MS SUCKS!

The nice thing was that number one called when we got home and was quite, I imagine, animated but definitely talky, but I had plopped into a living-room chair, the recliner actually, but I was very uncomfortable, and Hubby was busy putting things away like my ice packs from my cooling vest and it was difficult in the position like now to talk to him… Hubby took the phone, thank heavens!

I have been in and out of bed ever since, but did help start supper; Hubby again had to finish it!
That is why MS SUCKS!

And so that is where I stand now, make that sit in agony and that is why I am cutting this short and I will talk at you tomorrow night, allow me than to wish all of you a very happy good night and ask you to kindly count all your blessings and share all those overages with you know who and we will too!

And next time please be here or be square, ya hear!
