A little back ground: My husband traveled on business. When he went out of town I took over the yard work. We had a very large front and back yard.
It was morning but still warm. I started mowing the back yard. I got about half of it done and my legs started getting weak and heavy feeling, I felt like my legs were going to give out. I finished the back yard went in the house.
Normally I could mow front and back at one time.
I went out the next morning to do the front yard. I only got about a quarter of it done when my legs once again became weak and heavy but this time I was getting vibrations/buzzing. I had a hard time making it back into the house.
This started my journey with MS and the severe exacerbation that got me diagnosed.
I can have pseudo-exacerbations from getting over heated and once I cool down I'm fine.
Unfortunately, I can also have the exacerbations that are very real and can knock me on my butt for 6 to 8 weeks with a longer time before I get back to baseline.
If I can make it through July and August without an exacerbation I breath a sigh of relief.
