HI EVERYONE!
PLEASE EXCUSE THE CAPS BUT SOMEONE TOLD ME THAT IT IS EASIER TO READ. I TRIED TO CHANGE THE FONT BUT ENDED UP
MAKING IT SO SMALL THAT YOU COULD NOT READ IT!
ANY WAY I HAVE BEEN AWAY FOR A LONG TIME BECAUSE I FELT LIKE I WAS JUST COMPLAINING. AS CLERGY, I DO HAVE FAITH BUT,
PEOPLE WERE SEEING ME AS WEAK WHEN I ONLY WANTED ANSWERS.
PLEASE FORGIVE MY RAMBLING. I AM SO FRUSTRATED RIGHT NOW. MY DOCTOR TRIED BOTOX FOR THE SPASMS IN MY LEGS. IT
WORKED FOR AWHILE BUT, CAME BACK. HE CALLED ME TODAY AND, I TOLD HIM A LITTLE OF WHAT IS GOING ON. I SEE HIM NEXT
WEEK BUT I JUST WANTED TO TALK TO PEOPLE WHO KNEW WHAT MS "FEELS" LIKE AND NOT JUST SOMEONE WHO LOOKS AT IT IN A
MEDICAL SIDE.
THE PAST TWO WEEKS I HAVE NOTICED THAT SOMETHING IS DEFINETLY HAPPENING! I AM SO TIRED ALL THE TIME AND IT'S NOT
BECAUSE I AM WORKING HARD! I SLEEP AT NIGHT THEN, I GET UP, HAVE COFFEE AND EAT, DO A FEW THINGS AND THEN, SIT DOWN
AND FALL ASLEEP! THIS HAPPENS ALL DAY. WAKE UP, DO A FEW THINGS, SIT, SLEEP...OVER AND OVER AGAIN!
THE SECOND "S" IS SPASMS EVERYWHERE! I USED TO GET SPASMS MAINLY IN MY LEGS AND AS I SAID, MY DR. TRIED BOTOX. THE
SPASMS LEFT FOR about A WEEK AND THEN CAME BACK WITH A VENGENCE! IN THE PAST TWO WEEKS THE SPASMS HAVE NOT
ONLY BEEN IN MY LEGS BUT, MY HANDS, MY ARMS, EVERYWHERE! I AM STUMBLING AND WALKING INTO WALLS. IT REALLY SCARING
ME!
THE THIRD "S" IS MY SIGHT. I WENT TO AN EYE DOCTOR WHERE I LIVE AND TOLD HIM I HAVE MS. I TOLD HIM MY EYES HURT AND I
AM HAVING BLURRED VISION THAT MY READING GLASSES DO NOT CLEAR. HE TOLD ME, "IT'S NOT MS" AND BRUSHED ME OFF. WITH
EVERYTHING ELSE I NEED TO KNOW IF ANYONE ELSE HAS THIS PROBLEM?
I SHOULD HAVE PUT, FOUR "S'S" BECAUSE I AM STUMBLING AND WALKING INTO WALLS! I GO TO GET UP AND IT TAKES FOREVER TO
GET MY BALANCE. THEN, WHEN I TRY TO WALK I FIND MYSELF STUMBLING AND OFF BALANCE. ANYONE ELSE GOING THROUGH THIS?
ANY SUGGESTIONS?
OOPS! THERE ARE FOUR "S'S"! BUT FIVE PROBLEMS. THE FIFTH IS MY MEMORY! COULD YOU HAVE GUESSED? I THINK OF ALL THE
PROBLEMS THIS IS THE MOST FRIGHTENING! I REMEMBER IMPORTANT THINGS SUCH AS SERMON MATERIAL BUT, DON'T ASK ME ALL
OF MY GRANDCHILDREN'S NAMES SOME DAYS! SOME DAYS I WILL GO TO GET SOMETHING AND FORGET WHERE AND WHY AND
WHAT I WAS DOING!!
THANK YOU FOR TAKING THE TIME TO READ THIS LONG POST I REALLY APPRECIATE IT. NOW, IF ANYONE HAS ANY SUGGESTIONS OR
IDEAS, PLEASE LET ME KNOW?
LOVE AND PRAYERS TO ALL OF YOU!
