True story really. I am going to stay with my oldest son, here home my other son is overwhelmed, he doesn’t feel comfortable being too far from me🥹 his other siblings have minimized what he seeing maximally! We talk and I do understand his feelings, they are valid! So I’m me meeting my 2 granddaughters who are both under 4 so I am excited yet I have zero income😫 my flight and thing were gifted to me. I’m am grateful for that. I wanted to get to meet my granddaughters before anything else happens. I have hired counsel to assist me in obtaining Disability, I apply a few times and was denied. I can’t even afford my medication. Not looking for sympathy, I guess, just wanted to be more clear, I ABSOLUTELY hate MS and what it’s done to my confidence, yeah I don’t trust myself,& I before this all I was actually looking forward to turning 50! Yeah made it to 50 but I don’t like how I feel and how unsure I am now about the things I was MOST confident about doing, not so much these days and it makes me ANGRY cuz I didn’t plan this nor have the resources to live with this confidently. Praying for a steady body to keep doing what it HAS been doing for 49 years!! Health care is NOT caring these days and I can only say, timing has been my lack for some time now. I digress have a awesome MS’n day everyone. 💜🫶🏾🤟🏾💪🏾🤞🏾✌🏾

Does anyone else with MS have a problem when they are down on the floor getting back up? I just had E M T'S leave after picking me up off the floor. Twice this past month it has happen. How embarrassing that is. I try everything and nothing works. I feel like a turtle on his back and just wiggle back and forth. Any body got any little tricks on how to get back up?

I feel very heavy headed. Im not sure if its brain fog. I was diagnosed with PPMS about two years ago and im still trying to find stuff out. Anyway for the last couple weeks I feel heavy headed and find it hard to concentrate and want to lie down all the time. Does anyone else ever feel like this and will it pass or is it going to be permanent

So I recently met with my Dr. Who informed me that I will be trying different muscle relaxers to help with this pain.
