Hello everyone, it's been 3 months since dx'd and I haven't told most of my friends yet. There's a party tonight, annual get together of many of my friends and although my symptoms have improved. Outside in the heat and humidity my illness will be Obvious.
So I guess I am coming "out" tonight. I plan on wearing the most fashionable cooling vest around in khaki Tank, shorts and again fashion forward shoes of Crocs! Need to or I won't be able to walk to the picnic bench LOL.
I have found out that there are outlets available and will be taking a fan and a cooler of ice to recharge my cooling vest inserts (fortunately I have 2 sets).
Any other coping suggestions?
I have missed many activities and events since my dx and I am determined to get to this annual picnic.
I am doing my best to toss aside my self consciousness, but with the vest and all those bruises and welts from my injection sites, plus the acne from the drugs, it's hard. Not to mention my slightly drunken gait.
I am looking for some encouragement from my fellow MSers.
