GrammieP's Profile

Feeling: Good  - Good
Gender: Female
Age: 62
Location: NH
Interests:
Gardening, reading, writing poetry, (when my hands and brain work) messing around on the 'puter
About Me:
I am early 60's and was d/x with MS in 2002. I have had some rocky years but finally have my head together and have accepted the fact that I have MS!!! I have 3 grown children, a beautiful granddaughter named Sophie and a new grandson named Mason. My husband and I have been married 39 years and with each year it gets better. I am retired and more busy than when I worked. We moved to NH in 2004 into our dream retirement home. Hubby is still working but hopes to retire in the next few years. Our home overlooks two mountain ranges and two lakes. Living in the city for sooo long we forgot what beauty there is in the night sky, sunrises and sunsets. I am so connected to nature, especially trees and the wind!

 Multiple Sclerosis (MS)
  Progressive Relapsing MS
As of 9/9/07 I decided to stop taking Copaxone and feel better than I have in ages!! However, NOT recommended unless your neurologist approves!! 
Treatments
 Neurontin (Somewhat Helpful)
My feet and hands hurt, tingle and are numb all the time. The Neurontin helps but does not totally relieve the symptons.
 Reike (Working / Worked)
A fabulous experience that worked wonders!

 Trigeminal Neuralgia
I was diagnosed in 2002 with Multiple Sclerosis. In the past several years I have had on and off stabbing pain in my right ear and on occasion my left. It feels like being stabbed with an ice pick. Quite nasty but it would only last a few seconds. I would get every few months. Lately, I have been having the pain more often and it now lasts for approx. 3 days. I am seeing my neurologist this week and hope he can be of some help. 
Treatments
 Hot andor cold compress Vicidin (Working / Worked)
