    About Me

    I have found living in the country both helpful physically and emotionally. I enjoy prayer time, animals, gardening, and time shared with my ailing father while working on genealogy.

      I just want to extend a hug to you and tell you that every creature, great and small, has a meaning and a purpose. Others may not see it, but that is their misfortune. You have purpose and meaning. Please know you are important and are a gift to the universe. Peace to you. jani

    • Close Multiple Sclerosis (MS)
      : Seconday Progressive MS

      I was diagnosed with M.S in 1978. I've found effective treatment through Cytoxin, ACTH, and Avonex. Lingering symptoms continue to plague me although the disease process seems to become slowly progressive rather than serious relapse and symptom-free remissions.

      Treatments

      Psychotherapy Working / Worked
      helped to cope with uncertainties and questions unrelated to the spirit.
      Writing Working / Worked
      helped to organize confusing thoughts and feelings.
      Effexor Working / Worked
      helped with symptoms related to major depressions.
      Positive Thinking Working / Worked
      absolute necessity to get up in the morning.
      Ritalin Not Working
      was complicated to obtain and found the same effect could be obtained by drinking a cup of Expresso.
      Cytoxan Working / Worked
      Was very helpful in relieving the problems related to accute attacks.
      Gabapentin Working / Worked
      Helpful in reducing electrical sensations that disturbed concentration and sleep.
      Klonopin Working / Worked
      Helpful in reducing problems related to restless leg syndrome.
      Requip Working / Worked
      reducing restless leg syndrome.
      Vitamin B12 Working / Worked
      Treatment of pernicious anemia
      Avonex Working / Worked
      Seems to have stabilized the rollercoaster effect of the multiple sclerosis. Tylenol helps with sideeffects on the night of dosage.
