Pacing

Hi, this term has been used repeatedly with me over the years, but the meaning thereof in practical terms escapes me. I would love if anyone can advise how they "paced" themselves in their MS recoveries, whether it's post a relapse, an injury, treatment, anything whatsoever... I am aware of the old...

MS Pacing Explained Perfectly 🤣💩

A bloke is on the toilet having a poo. Mid-wipe, he feels a sneeze coming. His body gives him plenty of warning. Any sensible person would stop. Not this hero. He decides he can finish wiping and sneeze at the same time. The outcome was apparently so horrific that the bathroom mirror immediately unf...

Pacing through events

Hello everyone ☺️ I’m looking for advice really! My wedding is in August and it’s only small 1-5pm but socialising is very tiring for me and I’m wondering if people have tips on how to pace successfully through events?

Yesterday my Garmin basically said RELEASE THE HOUNDS 🐺

So I did. PBs broken. Weights shifted. Felt like Superman. 43 years old, 90 months into MS and absolutely flying. 💪 Fast forward to this morning… Sleep: 4 hours 24 minutes Body Battery: 45 Children: Awake Whose turn is it to get up? Mine. 😂 And just like that, Superman has been recalled by managem...

🍎 Snow White and the Seven Symptoms

Snow White stumbled across a cottage containing seven dwarfs. Not the Disney ones. These were the MS dwarfs, where every character comes with a neurologist and a leaflet. 😴 Sleepy slept 10 hours and woke up absolutely shattered. “What did you do yesterday?” “Nothing.” “Today?” “Also looking ...

🦸 THE AVENGERS: MS EDITION

Mission: GET TO THE 6:10 DOCTOR’S APPOINTMENT Somehow, against all known laws of the NHS, I have secured a doctor’s appointment for 6:10pm. This is not a drill. I’ve had a chest infection hanging around like an unwanted house guest, and because I’m on a DMT, apparently we should probably investig...

💊 BULLSHIT BAFFLES BRAINS: THE SUPPLEMENT AISLE

Before we start, I'm not here to pick a fight with the supplement industry. 😂 I use supplements. Some have genuinely helped me. Some have done absolutely fuck all. And some have probably just given me very expensive piss. What works for me might do nothing for you, and what works brilliantly for ...

I’ve got the opposite of the Midas Touch. 😂

King Midas touched things and they turned to gold. I touch things and they immediately require a warranty claim. Drop a glass? That’s for the gods. Spill something while cooking? Part of the recipe. And my cooking is the stuff of legends. Every spill, drop and minor kitchen disaster adds someth...
