On Thursday, March 19 I had my first Ocrevus Infusion this year. Pete drove me because of my tendonitis and my weak legs. My appointment was at 9;30 and the drug wasn’t started until 10:30. I am on the fast drip which should take about 2 1/2 hours. As I’m looking back I’m realizing that…

Friday night I woke up around 3 am with sharp pain in my left upper thigh and had trouble moving that leg. I couldn’t put weight on that leg without pain, so I couldn’t use the walker and was back in the wheelchair in the house. It was right in my groin. I wasn’t sure…

I did have a very busy night dreaming. I was at a party at Mariska Hargitay’s home. I don’t remember most of it but that is beside the point. I wanted to add that being a very vivid dreamer, all of my dreams have one thing in common: I don’t have MS This allows me…

Primary Physician – Last week I went to Dr. Adams for my followup after leaving the hospital. I like her a lot. For seeing her only once a year she remembers me and is familiar with my health records. After looking through what went on in the hospital, we focused on my lungs. I was…

I am happy to say that my weight this month is 135.6. That is another 3 lbs. I am sticking to my ChatGPT Diet. Lots of non-fat yogurt, fruit, egg whites, salmon and vegetables. I also don’t eat after 8 pm. When I was in the hospital I didn’t eat for three days and I…

On Thursday, February 21, I was still not feeling right. I asked Pete to take me to Bon Secours Urgent Care. I decided on this because my primary physician had done a urine culture and prescribed Bactrim, another antibiotic and something for the pain. I had been unable to see anyone in that office. At…

This visit with Dr. Moen was to get my first dose of Botox in my ankles or calves. We were all ready and then she asked if I had any infections lately. I currently have a UTI, (urinary tract infection) and I am being treated with Nitrofurantoin Mono-MCR 100 mg. Well that ended that. You…

This was my six month check-in with Dr. Millis, Virginia Endocrinology. I like Dr. Millis, he is always on time, doesn’t keep you waiting in the inner room, is very thorough, asks pertinent questions, answers any questions I have and quickly sends the summary of the visit. I had blood work done in the office.…

When I got on the scale this morning I wasn’t feeling too positive. Surprise, 138.8. I lost 3.2 lbs. I feel this is significant for me since I have been trying. I started riding my stationary bike while doing reps with 2 lb weights for my arms. I’m not up to 20 minutes yet but…
