Lady Freedom Returns

The pain is getting worse and spreading.

When it (MS) started, it didn't hurt. Just body parts didn't want to work.
Now I hurt. And my hands burn and scratch for long periods of time. It feels really weird on my right since I can't feel anything with it.
And this strange feeling like needles are poking into my head.

Don't know if I should call my doctor and beg to see him or if it's just one of those things with MS.

you are having a radical change in symptoms.

I would think that would be a sign that you should consult with your physician as soon as possible.

I don't think ACCESS will pay for a face to face yet.
They like to keep distance between visits.

I have it all of the time now.

It gets worse as the day gets long.

It really sucks.

Try to get as much sleep as you possibly can.

That is the only thing I've ever found to help with this condition.

Hang-in there Lady Freedom.

I didn't know about that Lady Freedom.

It amazes me how fast this damn disease can take every f'n thing you ever had.

I hope you are in a safe place!

If you aren't -- go to the ER I guess ...
