This Is MS Multiple Sclerosis Knowledge & Support Community

Hello, also, to Finn and Valerie and all the others! I don't have much time lately to read all the messages, but I'm glad we have new friends every day. Valerie, have you visited the alt.support.mult-sclerosis Google forum? You may find others your age there, and they are also a very welcoming group...

Hi Jean! Welcome on board!

Hugs,

Good luck, Kim, with the study! You'rea brave girl, and your courage is certainly appreciated. :) And I'm so jealous of you - I would love to be able to jog again, even if only for a few seconds! Not that I'm losing hope that it may come back some day, especially if I get to try LDN soon. Heard so m...

Done! Thanks Larry, for posting this. Hope it helps to get LDN approved quickly.

Joyce, Thanks for the explanation on how LDN works. I've read the sites, etc. but it never was perfectly clear until I read your answer here! :D I'm seeing my alternative doctor on April 1 and hoping to get a prescription to start asap. From what I can see, it can't hurt even it doesn't help - which...

I thought I had mentioned that I was taking a trip to the US... Oh well, never mind! It's a beautiful, spring day here - finally! We had snow just 3 days ago, and today it's about 75 and the trees and flowers are blooming! I love spring! And maybe this evening I can take that little walk around the ...

Hi Sharon, Dawn, Chris, Kim and all you other good folk who've been keeping up the exercise! I must say I'm guilty of not doing regular stuff for the past 2 weeks. I had a conference for work in Nashville in the first week of March and since we had a vacation at the school the last week of Feb., I t...

Are you a gymnast, Kim? Back flips, indeed! :lol: Thanks for the details on your leg lifts, and thanks Bonnie also for the toe exercises. I'll add them to my list! Sharon, I usually get worse in the winter, cold is not good for me, either. The heat doesn't seem to bother me at all as far a symptoms ...

Go Chris! Just do a little, bit by bit. I sometimes felt worse after exercise too, but then just had to rest a few days, and next time reduce the effort. :| I may try a walk in the afternoon, around the block, if I can get one of the girls or Jean Pierre to go with me as I'll probably need someone t...

Hi all! I skipped yesterday to let the muscles rest, but this afternoon will redo the arm weights. Actually, I can't wait! Since my arms aren't affected too much right now, I can at least get them firmed up before they start sagging :D Kim, I like the idea of leg lifts, but will probably have to do ...

Well, I did pull out my TotalGym machine yesterday and started with arm weights. That went OK - I can feel the muscles today! But when I tried the leg exercises, which meant that I had to lie down, I got so woozy and dizzy and started feeling nauseous almost immediately. And the yucky feeling lasted...

This is a great cheering section! (Go, Brenda, SIS - BOOM - DA! Shaking that booty!) Gosh, I'm really getting into the mindframe now!

You all are great!

Big hugs,

Monday - I promise! Tonight and tomorrow my daughter Morgan is playing in the orchestra at the school play, so I'll be driving back and forth to drop her off and pick her up for rehearsals and the play. Sunday should be a relatively calm day, and now that I know I HAVE to report back to you, can't m...

I know how that feels! It's 5:00 here and time to go home from work and I feel like I'm about ready to shut down, too!

Where is my couch and the remote control? Did I just say that out loud??? I mean, let me pull out that exercise machine and get started!

Thanks, Dawn! (I think you meant Brenda, but I'm honored to be confused with Bonnie! )
