Hi everyone, I hope you all doing okay & staying strong. I have alot going on & I feel like crap. I been stressing but Lord knows I try not to because it's not good for my health. My oldest son was in a bad car wreck on Ma 16, 2026 & it took a toll on me when I went to the hospital & seen him with that breathing tube in his mouth. Hearing the doctor saying he can't breath on his own devastated me. God heard my prayers & gave my son another chance. He showed him grace & mercy...my son had to have surgery/ in his hip 2 plates & 12 screws. He's going through Rehab Therapy now. I stayed at the hospital with him for bout 14 days & never left his side. The hospital then transported him to a inpatient Rehab Therapy Facility I stayed that day & went hope to rest. I having been feeling the best. I need to go see my Neurologist but my car a/c went out & I can't stand to be in the heat very long. It takes 1hr. 10 min. to my Neurologist. It's sad but I don't have anyone to take me. My oldest son towed out his car & my baby son drive trucks over the road/ he drive his car to Atlanta truck spot & leave it there while he work. I'm concerned & honestly worried about my health for 1 my vision is blurry going in & out/ the pain in my right eye is excruciating it was like that before I think it's optic neuritis. I think I have another UTI, and my memory done got worser, and my whole body especially my legs are aching so bad. It sucks having MS & you don't have a support system or anyone to help me when I'm down & out. I just pray God hears my prayers...Still I'm there for my mom with dementia, my son because he still needs my help...but I look around & nobody has me. One of my sister's have cancer & still I go by & check on her & call her but hopefully she will be fine she done with chemo, had surgery, and next step radiation. I tell God I see why you allowed me to go through the things I went through in life...even though I'm going through I'm still fighting & staying strong. If, nobody else don't got me I got me & I know God got me. He didn't bring me this far to leave me. I'm just going to stand still and wait on God like always...he might not come when I want but he's a on time God. He amazes me everytime!🙏🏿❤️🙌🏾

Had my first shot of Kesimpta 4 days ago, my first time on a DMT. The initial side effects were fine but now I'm having a horrible flare of my MS symptoms! Especially fatigue and my leg weakness. Did anyone else have a symptoms flare after starting treatment and how long did it last for you?

anyone using a sensor

Hi shiftms fairies🧚🏻‍♀️ I’m an Electrical Engineering student, and I’ve been diving deep into how sensor technology can help with MS symptoms like balance or walking issues. I’m really curious about what’s happening in the real world outside of my textbooks. If you use any wearables (smartwatches,...

Humble

Yesterday I took a walk with my daughter, because of my balance I used my cane for the first time. What a humbling experience. Is using a walking aid embarrassing for any of you?

I am so tired..

I am so tired of this heat. I’m in serious pain and the fatigue is a killer. I just cannot do anything. I save all my energy to look after my pets and to shower/bath (because of how hot it is I’m sweating buckets) Cooking is not an option. Climate change and global warming sucks.

Electric rain

I woke up at 5am this morning fed the dogs and made myself a coffee and thought I’d enjoy the cooler temperatures in the garden. Whilst relaxing I felt what I thought was tiny spots of rain on me. I thought that’ll be good for the lawn as we’ve got a hosepipe ban starting this morning. After a littl...

Uncaring

I’m not sure if uncaring is the title I really want for this rant/observation but I started thinking of the years since my diagnosis (2002) my family members even my grown children I don’t think any one of them has really been curious enough to read about my symptoms the things I deal with daily and...
