Good Afternoon/Evening, Possums and Happy Monday. I’m still running a tad slow today - still fighting the body fatigue from PLEX but it’s all good.
Today has been a busy day. When I am not employed, I like busy. This morning I had to pre-clean before the cleaners came at 1pm. Then cleaners showed up right on time and were done by 2:30pm and it smells like peppermint. I love that.
I set up my sonogram appointment for tomorrow at 11:30am. My Neurologist wants one performed on my left leg/foot - my problem leg / foot - to see what might be causing all the swelling and the ‘evening ankle’ I have been subjected to for the last month.
And finally, I just completed a very, very, very long meeting with my attorney. It was more ‘Information Gathering and Discovery”. What it boiled down to was listing of the things I cannot do in this stage of the disease. These include: driving, walking, vision issues, tinnitus 24/7 , touching paper or touching anything with a ’current’ or anything that sends / receives a signal. (You’re wondering how I type and use my computer, phone and remotes aren’t you? Well, sometimes it feels like my finger tips are burning or stinging and I suck it up and power through - taking breaks as needed. Other times, I use the eraser on the top of a pencil - hunt and peck).
The final issue on the list is speaking (which is more difficult on some days than others).
Luckily, my sarcasm, delightful sense of humor, witty repartee, sparkling personality, plucky spirit and zest for life are still fully intact. Those are only minimally affected when I have one of those hefty, delicious mood swings brought on by the steroids (I am forced to ingest) as promised by the makers of Prednisone. But that hardly ever happens.
But seriously, I thinks that is enough. All of this information will be sent to the folks deciding / managing my case.
Wheelchair Status - “Pending authorization from Insurance” - I’m exhausted!
SSA Case Status - Up from 15% to 16% Complete
Supplemental SSA - 8% Complete
Kankle News - I have a kankle - it used to be my left foot
Podcast - waiting to meet with my cohosts
Possums - MS is not for beginners but if you must have something, catch a cold. LOL
Anyhoozle, I hope you all have a wonderful day. What are your plans?
Everyone have a GREAT evening!
Whatever your day holds and whatever your plans may be, I wish you all a SPECTACULAR day. Do everything today with kindness in your heart. The world is full of kind people. If you can’t find one, be one!
To all of my fellow MS Warriors, keep fighting the good fight. And to all MS Warrior Supporters, Thank You! Your support means everything.
Peace, Love and Blessings to you all. -AJ
