    Exacerbation

    Now I have one of those. After spending the month of September and part of November in and out of the hospital for UTIs to suicidal attempts that came out of nowhere. Now I wake up yesterday morning and can't feel anything below my neck. My muscles are also very weak also and I can't swallow or talk well. So I am back on IVSM for 5 days. Honestly I was hoping for no more relapses with SPMS. I still have the slow decline. Whachagonnado.

    Anyway thanks for letting me vent.

    Dear Lisa - this is such sad news and I'm so sorry. You have been through the wringer lately. Do you have help at home or will this be another hospital stay?

    You are in my prayers and hope the IVSM works wonders for you

        We are glad you are here with us

        We are so glad you are here with us! I know this MS stuff is not easy for any of us. But, let's start, to reduce
        the list of chronic diseases with high suicide rates. Come on, I want to meet you all in heaven!

        I'm serious! Let's reduce that rate! It's ONE thing that we will be able to do. Let's all look forward to reuniting in Heaven. I'm serious! I know it's not easy.

        But please, let's try to ask for help. We are all very smart, and very hard workers. I know we can do this! PLEASE, let's get the ball rolling.

                Lisa,

                I am so sorry to hear you are in a flare and depression has reared its ugly head. I only wish I had the words to help you as much as you have helped me. I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers.

                    Glad you'll be at home and hope your husband can get some time off to be with you. Tell him you need some pampering

                    Rest up dear Lisa.

                      I'm so sorry, Lisa. Enough is enough already! Of all people, you sure didn't need this to happen. I hope the solumedrol helps, and soon.

                      You are in my prayers.

                            Whachagonnado? I would cry. And then cry again. It would help.

                            It is nice to have IVSM at home.

                            Lets hope this is the last setback you have for a VERY long time. Since IVSM causes the munchies....seriously chow down if you can tomorrow.
