post 509 ms symptoms 14 Sep 2019

[RoyceNewton]

I know that everybody raced off to Amazon and bought a laminated copy of your Central Nervous System (CNS) chart. "YOU" are appropriately confused and amazed by it, I hope. "YOU" also know from your research that this is what ms in all its forms attacks.

Now the fun part where "YOU" get to smile smugly, trace your finger from where "YOU" are hurting back to your brain and say "oh I understand it is ms." "YOU" also know of a thing called invisible symptoms, and there are things that Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) does not see. That strange tingling that constricting bear hug, that aggravating itch is most likely ms playing its game with your body.

Not everything is ms. Sometimes your bad habits can lead to other illness be aware of this. But, and I stress, but ms has a very large field to mess with and it will and can do all sorts of things. Live your life aware and try not to be too surprised with what happens to "YOU."

ms is a lifelong condition with a large playing field, and a determined "YOU" taking your Disease-Modifying Therapy (DMT) messing with its machinations.

ms is doable illness, and you will survive by being smart about it

Did not buy the laminated chart of The Central Nervous System yet. It is on my 'wish list' though! Thank you for spending my money, RoyceNewton

it was my pleasure, anything else we might need?

[carolek572 CommunityAmbassador in reply to RoyceNewton]

Well, as long as I am the one that is spending, do you have any suggestions? The sky is the limit! I only wish

[kycmary]

[RoyceNewton in reply to kycmary]

[kycmary in reply to RoyceNewton]

??????????

[RoyceNewton in reply to kycmary]

naughty for not buying your brain chart, but if you feel it does not help then why spend the money

[kycmary in reply to RoyceNewton]

That's right my MRIs show a cloudy look so I know I live in the MS fog 24/7!!

I didn't buy the laminated nervous system on Amazon but I did get a coaster set of the brain in slices from top to bottom from thinkgeek.com. I've actually used the set to point out where my "spots" are to people. My last MRI showed so many new spots on the right side that the tech stopped trying to count them and just wrote "numerous small new lesions". I'm scheduled for the next one the end of next month and it will include brain, neck, and for the first time spinal cord. I got a really bad case of the MS hug last time I tried climbing into a canoe. I nearly had to do a backbend to stretch it back out.

wow that is way cool, a coaster set

I hope you are ok and regularly talking your Disease Modifying Therapy (DMT)
