My Life with Multiple Sclerosis 013124

Hellooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo,
Possuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuums!

PLEASE KEEP SHARING AND LIKING!

Coming to you from the Celebrity Suites of the Wyndemere at Turtle Creek Condominiums in Dallas, Texas, today is Wednesday, January 31, 2024. It’s going to be a sunny day with a high of 73.

Happy Belated Birthday to:

Good Morning, Possums and Happy Wednesday and Happy Hump Day. We made it half way through the week. January comes to a close today as well. January always seems like the longest month (to me) but it has flown by.

Yesterday was a busy day. I had an appointment with an infectious disease doctor at UT Southwest. I do not hatve one nor was I inquiring about getting one. My neurologist sent me there as a precaution to have this last shingles area taking its time clearing up. But it’s all good. No new meds. It will heal. It’s just taking its time. Also, this weekend, I will be getting my pneumonia vaccine - flu last weekend, pneumonia vaccine this weekend and my first shingles vaccine the following weekend. Then, it will be February - LOL.

I spent an hour and half on the phone yesterday with insurance to straighten something out (not on my end). They needed a phone number of a provider - AN HOUR AND A HALF. I was on hold for most of it.

Health insurance is already a racket as is the prescription drug industry and anything Dr. Oz and Oprah Winfrey are involved with. We need a Drug and Health Insurance Czar and someone to regulate Oprah. I don’t really care about Dr, Oz! Oprah introduced him to the world so maybe he should be her responsibility. He’s more an annoyance now.

No appointments today - the house keeper is coming this morning and I need to finish editing episode #2 of our podcast. It should be out this evening.

Tomorrow, I have occupational and physical therapy in the morning and PLEX (plasma exchange) tomorrow afternoon. Friday will be spent resting and recovering from Thursday.

Our podcast is now available on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Google Podcast, Podcast Index, Amazon, YouTube and I Heart Radio. You can download the first episode here:

Your feedback is welcome and encouraged. Just remember we are new to this and it may take a few episodes to find our footing. Enjoy!

In other news:

Disability Percentages: no change

SSA Case Status - 58% Complete
Supplemental SSA - 50% Complete

Kankle News - I still have two puffy feet.

Anyhoozle, that’s all I have for today. What’s on your calendar? I hope you all have 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
