Update

Yesterday was my telemedicine call, after neurosurgeon cancelled twice because of the virus....really? It’s telemedicine!

He said I need more time to heal! Still having a lot of numbness and difficulty walking. He said it takes time and patience....which I am not good at.

I did ask him about my first MRI, that showed lesions....which as what brought me to this great website, with wonderful people!

He said he is unsure and now wants me to go back to the neurologist....

WOW!

On the plus side, I was notified yesterday....my small air conditioner should be here Monday.

After being on back order from Japan....

Yes, again... the virus!

Yesterday was 91 outside and 91 inside.

Today is cooler, thank God!

You're doing what you're supposed to do

We should never settle for just one opinion when it comes to a dx of any kind

Glad u will have air soon

[Hidden in reply to rjoneslaw]

Thanks

That's great the Neuro called and is going to have you do more testing! Keep us updated when you can! Glad you have an a/c unit coming as well. Heat is not good.

What do you do to keep cool? 91* is very very hot to cope with ms, hope you get sorted soon, Blessings Jimeka 👍

Thanks Jimena

Yesterday was 91, inside and out

Today is 73! Thank God!

Email today said I will get my A/C Monday!

So awful, but hopefully an end soon

[jimeka in reply to Hidden]

Do you live in one of the hotter States?

[Hidden in reply to jimeka]

No Montana, could be way worse!

My brother-in-law is in Alabama...

Very humid there! Still hot!

[jimeka in reply to Hidden]

How are you now after the surgery, is it getting better day by day?

[Hidden in reply to jimeka]

Well kinda... I am impatient!

Try not to be!

I had hip replacement surgery and healed up well, 2 1/2 months....

This is so different!

Surgeon told me yesterday, a year or more!

Be patient he said!

I had a trans thoracic discectomy done, 10 years ago. They said don’t worry you will be walking your dog in a week. I was in high dependency for 5 days, then hospital for another week. It was 6 months before I could walk my dog, now 10 years later he has to run at the side of my off road scooter. Situations change and even though we don’t like to admit it, we get older naturally. Have a good weekend, enjoy the AC when it arrives. 🤗

[Hidden in reply to jimeka]

Okay, well you need to lie to me!

Darn it!

I need to work and make money!

I can’t live on nothing.

as far as the air,i found out when i recently bought a refridgerator there is a metal shortage,who would have thought?and my mom used to tall me time heals all,patience,easy to say........best to you

[Hidden in reply to pamgarner]

To you too pamgarner

Thanks

I'm so pleased to hear about the AC. That kind of heat at night makes sleeping almost impossible! And night after night of sleeplessness affects the quality of life. It's ironic though because for you folks in high country, temperatures will soon be dropping. The summer I worked in Yellowstone, we had a bit of snow in August.

[Hidden in reply to goatgal]

Yes, smile 😃

Yesterday was 73 degrees outside....so wonderful!

Fifties right now at 6am.....

I can live with that!

[Hidden in reply to goatgal]

I have always said I like the cold more...

I can always put more on

You can only take so many clothes off, before they call the cops 🚓!!

LOL

[Jesmcd2 CommunityAmbassador in reply to Hidden]

😂🤣😂 stay cool! 🤗💕🌠

Hope you're getting some relief from the heat. My air conditioner stopped working about 2 weeks ago, but luckily the next day it was fixed. It was a warm evening. So now I bought a little portable cooling box off of Amazon for the next time that this happens. Or if we just have a power outage. I was out of power for days before after a storm. That way at least I can sleep comfortable with the cold air blowing on me and it should cool one room. You plug it in with a USB port and charge it up and its good for many hours. And can be recharged with a charging battery.

[Hidden in reply to Humbrd]

Yes, yes

Mine should be here Monday...FedEx!

Was on back order from Japan—damn virus

[Humbrd in reply to Hidden]

Excellent!

Good luck with everything
