I loved the part about "process of elimination."Love,n--yes, I have always been like this. . . To: MSersLife Sent: Wed, June 30, 2010 9:22:09 PMSubject: Re: My Update

Don't worry about me Sharon ... then I'll have to worry about you worrying about me lol. Seriously I'm okay, just no energy and I'm worrying because the $'s I'd saved and saved for the home renos is gone and I've still got the upstairs and basement to do. offered to lend me the money but then I'd feel like I'd have to sell right away. And I'd rather stay here as long as I can. And yes I've been on prozac for years and am going to start it again. I just got fed up swallowing pills that ended up making me feel sick. So process of elimination

Oh, forgot my good news! I lost 8 pounds in 3 weeks ... all I can think of is I've temporarily lost my sweet tooth so no Jelly Belly's, no ice creams, etc. Really started me the other day when I didn't even have to upzip my pants to pull them down

Duluth is only about 3 1/2 hours away btw ... hugs, Cait

My Update

is very boring I remember my mother always saying that if you don't have anything good to say, keep quiet. I've been feeling so tired and fatigued lately that I have no energy to do anything. Plus I can't sleep as usual. The heat isn't bothering me at home cause I have a/c but doesn't. But I'm so frustrated with myself ... if I spill a bit of water on the floor, it's seems like a mammoth task to grab a rag and wipe it up! Pretty bad huh?

I stopped all my meds except for my bp one and I don't feel any worse mswise. I'm not really sure baclofen did much for me besides giving me rubber legs. Truthfully I prefer diazepam. I think I mentioned my leg/foot swelling had gone down lots when I stopped the amitryptilene. Well I've been taking Fossavance for over a year and the heartburn got unbearable. First just the day and night I took it and then eventually all the time. It was also making me eat Tums like candy which made my stomach upset and negated the acidity of mandelamine, my urinary antibacterium. Anyhoo less drugs, the better I feel!

I am really interested in Ampyra altho my chances of getting it are about nil. I think was talking about her problems with Rebif. Well I qualify for disability but because I worked in the family business and didn't take off deductions .... thanks ex *sarcasm intended*. I'm not eligible for any disability pension .

A question re LDN to Dan and those who take it ... my balance and gait are my worst symptom. Does LDN offer any help with that? I'm still on the lookout for a Cdn dr to prescribe it ... I just don't like what I've heard about drugs from India to order online. And another probably silly question, if it's used to help addicts, does it give you any 'high' like methadone does? That scares me; a few puffs of marijuana landed me in the hospital hallucinating for days. I don't seem to have any tolerance for mindaltering drugs of any type

hugs,
